AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing coffee bean adulteration detection technologies suffer from problems such as long detection cycles, high destructiveness, low accuracy, and weak anti-interference capabilities, making it difficult to achieve high-precision quantitative analysis of the adulteration ratio of high-value coffee beans.

Method used

A method combining terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and heterogeneous machine learning was adopted. The sample set was divided by hierarchical Kennard-Stone algorithm, and a GBDT-IF-RF hybrid model was constructed. The heterogeneous feature screening strategy was used to remove noise interference, so as to achieve high-precision quantitative detection of coffee bean component ratio.

Benefits of technology

It enables rapid, non-destructive, and high-precision quantitative detection of coffee bean adulteration ratios, improves the model's generalization ability and robustness, and is suitable for spectral quantitative analysis of complex biological matrix samples.

Abstract

蓝山咖啡豆因种植环境苛刻、产量稀少而具有较高市场价值,但其外观与普通阿拉比卡咖啡豆较为相似,市场中存在以阿拉比卡咖啡豆掺假蓝山咖啡豆的现象。为实现咖啡豆掺假比例的快速定量检测,采用太赫兹时域光谱(terahertz time‑domain spectroscopy,THz‑TDS)技术结合特征筛选与机器学习方法,对阿拉比卡与蓝山咖啡豆二组分混合体系进行定量分析。首先制备6种比例梯度的咖啡豆粉末压片样品并采集太赫兹光谱数据,在提取吸收系数光谱的基础上构建多种定量模型进行比较。结果表明,线性模型在描述咖啡豆组分比例与太赫兹光谱之间关系时存在一定局限,而基于树集成的非线性模型随机森林(Random Forest,RF)、梯度提升决策树(Gradient Boosting Decision Tree,GBDT)能够更好地刻画其复杂映射关系。
