Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of potato chip production methods, and in particular relates to a method for automatically controlling the frying temperature and time of potato chips. Background Art

[0002] The existing potato chip production line has parameters pre-set by operators. The operators set the thickness of potato slices, blanching temperature, blanching time, frying temperature and frying time according to the final quality requirements of potato chips, such as crispness and thickness of potato chips. However, due to differences in raw material properties, such as different types of potatoes and starch content, the potato chip production line cannot automatically match production parameters according to the different characteristics of raw materials, resulting in a large difference between the actual production parameters and the production parameters required for raw material matching. This difference is difficult for operators to discover during the production process, resulting in fluctuations in product quality, affecting product quality indicators such as taste, color, and crispness.

[0003] For example, a Chinese invention patent: A method for preparing crispy instant flavored French fries; Publication number: CN 116326743 A, this patent discloses a method for preparing crispy instant flavored French fries, comprising the following steps: (1) selecting fresh potatoes without buds and damage, peeling and washing, and evenly cutting into slices with a thickness of 3 to 4 mm; (2) steaming the potato slices, and mashing them into uniform and particle-free potato puree while still hot after steaming; (3) weighing the raw materials and auxiliary materials according to the formula, mixing the auxiliary materials evenly, and then adding the potato puree, and repeatedly kneading the dough to mix the raw materials and auxiliary materials; (4) putting the dough into an extruder for extrusion and forming; (5) baking for preliminary expansion, and requiring the French fries to have a uniform color and no burnt color; (6) sending the French fries after baking into a vacuum low-temperature fryer for frying and de-oiling; (7) packaging the French fries after cooling. The method directly steams and cooks potatoes to make puree, adds auxiliary materials to form, and then vacuum-fryes at low temperature to obtain a finished product. The finished product does not need to be fried again before eating, and the method is convenient and quick, and is a necessary snack for outdoor parties and picnics.

[0004] Most of the existing patents only provide a production method like this patent, and give a rough range. In actual production, due to the different types of potatoes, starch content, etc., the specific temperature and time still need to be manually assessed. When producing according to the method disclosed in this existing patent, using the same formula will still produce a large difference in taste, which is tantamount to having an adverse effect on the overall result of the product when pursuing the taste of potato chips. Summary of the invention

Step 7: Regularly collect potato chip samples actually produced from the production line for taste evaluation. If there is any deviation, retrain and optimize the model.

[0007] Furthermore, in step 2, the collected data is divided into a training set, a validation set, and a test set in a ratio of 70%:15%:15%; The starch content and potato slice thickness in the training set, validation set, and test set were normalized so that their values ​​ranged from 0 to 1.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0015] Figure 1 Flowchart of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below through specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Example

[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for automatically controlling the frying temperature and time of potato chips, comprising the following steps: 1. Establish a data set.

[0018] The basic formula determines that for temperature , considering the thickness The bigger the potato chips, the higher the temperature is needed to fry them thoroughly. The higher the temperature, the more you need to raise the temperature to make the chips crispier. You can assume that the temperature formula is roughly: ; in is a coefficient related to thickness, starch content and crispness, Is a reference temperature value.

[0019] For example, through experimental and empirical data fitting, The value can be 10 (which means that for every 1mm increase in thickness, the temperature will increase by about 10 degrees Celsius). The value is 5 (for every 1% increase in starch content, the temperature increases by about 5 degrees Celsius). The value is 5 (for every increase of 1 in the brittleness coefficient, the temperature increases by about 5 degrees Celsius), The value is 120 (basic frying temperature).

[0020] For time , considering the thickness The bigger it is, the longer it takes to fry and the starch content The higher the temperature, the longer it may take to keep the chips crispy. We can assume that the time formula is roughly: ; in is the coefficient, is the base time.

[0021] For example, The value is 30 (for every 1mm increase in thickness, the time increases by about 30 seconds). The value is 10 (for every 1% increase in starch content, the time increases by about 10 seconds). The value is 10 (the time increases by about 10 seconds for every increase in the brittleness coefficient). The value is 60 (basic frying time).

[0022] For the coefficient This requires a lot of experimentation to determine and adjust.

[0023] For example, a series of potato slices of different thicknesses and starch contents are prepared, and different combinations of temperature and time are set for frying. The actual crispness of the chips is then determined through sensory evaluation or professional crispness testing equipment. The coefficient is corrected based on the actual results so that the calculated temperature and time can meet the desired crispness as accurately as possible. .

[0024] Collect data on different potato varieties, starch content, potato chip thickness, frying temperature, frying time, and the corresponding crispy taste of potato chips. For a variety of different potato varieties, measure their starch content and make potato slices of different thicknesses. Then, conduct frying experiments under different combinations of frying temperature and frying time to obtain the crisp taste evaluation of potato chips under each combination. The crisp taste evaluation can be scored by professional judges or quantitatively measured using a texture analyzer.

[0025] These data are obtained through a large number of experiments.

[0026] Potato Varieties: One-Hot Encoding can be used to convert different potato varieties into vector form. For example, if there are 5 potato varieties, then a particular variety can be represented as a 5-dimensional vector, where only one element is 1 and the rest are 0.

[0027] Starch content: directly use the original starch content value as a feature. Assume that the starch content of potatoes is Unit: %, value range is 10%-25%.

[0028] Potato slice thickness: Also use the original thickness value as a feature. Suppose the thickness of the potato slice is Unit: mm, value range is 1-5mm.

[0029] Frying temperature: target output value, set the frying temperature to Unit: Celsius.

[0030] Frying time: target output value, set the frying time to Unit: s.

[0031] Desired crunchiness The coefficient range is 1-10, 1 means not brittle and 10 means the best.

[0032] 2. Model selection: select the multivariate linear regression model for model training.

[0033] Suppose our input feature vector is (in is the one-hot encoded vector of potato species, is the starch content, is the thickness of potato slices), the output feature vector is (in is the frying temperature, is the frying time). Then the linear regression model is expressed as ,in is the regression coefficient matrix, and e is the error term. Through training data, we can use methods such as least squares to estimate And it is usually assumed that e has a mean of 0 and a variance of The normal distribution of .

[0034] Define the residual sum of squares: Estimated regression coefficients The corresponding predicted value is , residual .

[0035] The residual sum of squares (RSS) is defined as: ; In the chip context, it is the sum of the squares of the differences between the actual potato chip quality index values ​​and the predicted values ​​calculated by the estimated coefficients under all observed data.

[0036] Find the regression coefficient that minimizes the residual sum of squares: Expand ; ; because is a scalar, and ,so , Then the above formula can be simplified to: ; right about Find the partial derivative: ; Let the partial derivative be 0, that is: ; Solving this equation yields: ; In the context of the potato chip production line, the calculated It is the regression coefficient that can minimize the residual sum of squares when predicting potato chips quality indicators based on frying temperature and frying time, thereby determining the specific quantitative relationship between the impact of frying temperature and frying time on potato chips quality indicators.

[0037] Then the feature vector for the input is , we can get: For frying temperature prediction, the model is expressed as: ; in is the frying temperature, is the regression coefficient to be estimated, is the error term; For frying time prediction, the model is: ; in It's frying time. is the regression coefficient to be estimated, is the error term.

[0038] 3. Model training, use the collected data set for training: Model initialization, Randomly initialize regression coefficients and , a uniformly distributed random number in the range [-0.1, 0.1].

[0039] Frying temperature prediction model, the loss function calculation formula is: ; in is the number of samples in the training set, It is The actual frying temperature of the samples, is the frying temperature predicted by the model; Frying time prediction model, the loss function calculation formula is: ; in yes The actual frying time of the sample, is the frying time predicted by the model.

[0040] Use the Adam optimization algorithm to optimize the model: Setting the learning rate , hyperparameters (These parameters can be adjusted according to the training effect).

[0041] In each round of training, the regression coefficients are updated according to the Adam algorithm: ; ; ; ; ; in and are the first-order moment estimates and second-order moment estimates of the gradient, and are the modified first-order moment estimates and second-order moment estimates, is the current gradient, is the current regression coefficient (including β and γ series coefficients).

[0042] Set the number of training rounds .

[0043] For each round of training: traverse each sample in the training set Substitute into the frying temperature prediction model and calculate the predicted temperature , according to the loss function Calculate the loss for temperature prediction and compute the gradient of the temperature prediction model with respect to the regression coefficients.

[0044] Will Substitute into the frying time prediction model and calculate the predicted time , according to the loss function Compute the loss for temporal predictions and calculate the gradient of the temporal prediction model with respect to the regression coefficients.

[0045] The Adam optimization algorithm is used to update the regression coefficients of the frying temperature and frying time prediction models according to the calculated gradients.

[0046] After every 100 training rounds, the model loss on the validation set is calculated (including and ), and record it.

[0047] 4. Model evaluation and optimization: Use the test set data to evaluate the performance of the model.

[0048] For the multivariate linear regression model, the mean square error (MSE) and mean absolute error (MAE) are used to measure the accuracy of model prediction.

[0049] The mean square error (MSE) measures the average square error between the model's predicted value and the actual value. The smaller the value, the better the model's fitting effect.

[0050] Mean absolute error (MAE) represents the average absolute value of the error between the model prediction value and the actual value. The smaller the value, the better the model.

[0051] Coefficient of determination : The value range is between 0 and 1. The closer it is to 1, the higher the variance ratio of the dependent variable that the model can explain, that is, the better the model fit is.

[0052] For the frying temperature prediction model, calculate the mean square error , mean absolute error and the coefficient of determination , the calculation formula is as follows: ; ; ; in is the number of samples in the test set, is the actual frying temperature of the i-th test sample, is the frying temperature predicted by the model, is the average of the actual frying temperatures in the test set.

[0053] For the frying time prediction model, calculate the mean square error , mean absolute error and the coefficient of determination , the calculation formula is as follows: ; ; ; in is the number of samples in the test set, It is The actual frying time of the test samples, is the frying time predicted by the model, is the average of the actual frying time in the test set.

[0054] if and Close to 0, and When it is close to 1, it means that the prediction accuracy of the model is high.

[0055] If the model performance is not ideal, adjust the model's hyperparameters and train again.

[0056] 5. Put the trained model into production: In the potato chip production line, potato starch content detection equipment (such as near-infrared spectrometer) is installed to automatically detect the starch content of potatoes when they enter the production line after being washed and peeled. At the same time, the potato variety information (which can be identified by a pre-set variety identification system) and slice thickness information (automatically recorded by the slicing equipment) are recorded.

[0057] The collected information on potato types, starch content and slice thickness are combined into a feature vector and substituted into the trained frying temperature and frying time prediction model to obtain the predicted frying temperature and frying time.

[0058] The predicted frying temperature and time parameters are transmitted to the control system of the fryer, and the temperature setting value and frying time setting value of the fryer are automatically adjusted to realize automatic control of the potato chip frying process.

[0059] Regularly collect actual potato chip samples from the production line for crispness and taste evaluation (using the same evaluation method as that used for model training).

[0060] The actual crispness and taste values ​​are compared with the target crispness and taste values. If there is a large deviation, these new data samples are added to the original data set, and the model is retrained and optimized to continuously improve the accuracy and adaptability of the model.

[0061] 6. In view of the possible large deviations, conduct another model training to calibrate the results: The taste evaluation results of the potato chips samples actually collected are set to , and the target taste evaluation result recorded in the data set is , then we get the deviation value , ; At the same time, the potato variety information corresponding to the production of this batch of potato chips is collected (in is the one-hot encoded vector of potato species, is the starch content, is the thickness of the potato slices) as well as the actual frying temperature and frying time data.

[0062] Set an acceptable deviation threshold , set to 0.5 (this is based on the taste rating using a 0-10 point system).

[0063] if , then the judgment deviation is large and model optimization is needed; if , it is considered that the current model performs well in this batch of production, and production continues with regular monitoring.

[0064] The newly collected potato chip sample data with deviations and their corresponding feature information are organized into a new data set; the new data set is merged with the original data set to obtain an expanded data set.

[0065] Retrain the model using the augmented dataset.

[0066] Through the above-mentioned repetitive process, feedback data from actual production is continuously incorporated into model training, which can gradually improve the accuracy and adaptability of the model, achieve more precise control of the potato chip frying process, and produce potato products that meet the target crispness and taste requirements, while improving production efficiency and product quality stability.
