| Summary: | Chinese prickly ash (CPA) is renowned for its distinct flavors across various regions in China. In this study, we present a novel approach using an electronic nose (E-nose) system to discriminate CPA samples originating from Henan, Gansu, Sichuan, Yunnan and an additional region. A total of 300 samples, with 60 samples from each of the five regions, were tested. The corresponding signals of the E-nose were initially fitted using polynomial regression methods, followed by the application of convolution methods to extract features from the polynomial parameters. These novel techniques were coupled with a support vector boosting machine for origin place classification. The hyperparameters of the model were optimized using the Harris Hawk optimization algorithm. Comparative analysis was conducted with the t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding method and principal component analysis. Additionally, the proposed model was benchmarked against eight state-of-the-art methodologies. Empirical results demonstrate the superior performance of the model, achieving an impressive accuracy of 95.17% when retaining five features per sensor. This work offers a valuable and innovative approach to accurately discriminate the origin place of spices. |
