TPE-RBF-SVM Model for Soybean Categories Recognition in Selected Hyperspectral Bands Based on Extreme Gradient Boosting Feature Importance Values
Abstract
Soybeans with insignificant differences in appearance have large differences in their internal physical and chemical components; therefore, follow-up storage, transportation and processing require targeted differential treatment. A fast and effective machine learning method based on hyperspectral data of soybeans for pattern recognition of categories is designed as a non-destructive testing method in this paper. A hyperspectral-image dataset with 2299 soybean seeds in four categories is collected. Ten features are selected using an extreme gradient boosting algorithm from 203 hyperspectral bands in a range of 400 to 1000 nm; a Gaussian radial basis kernel function support vector machine with optimization by the tree-structured Parzen estimator algorithm is built as the TPE-RBF-SVM model for pattern recognition of soybean categories. The metrics of TPE-RBF-SVM are significantly improved compared with other machine learning algorithms. The accuracy is 0.9165 in the independent test dataset, which is 9.786% higher for the vanilla RBF-SVM model and 10.02% higher than the extreme gradient boosting model.
