Popis: Hyperspectral imaging is built with the aggregation of imaging, spectroscopy and radiometric techniques. This technique observes the sample behaviour when it is exposed to light and interprets the properties of the biological samples. As hyperspectral imaging helps in interpreting the sample at the molecular level, it can distinguish very minute changes in the sample composition from its scatter properties. Hyperspectral data collection depends on several parameters such as electromagnetic spectrum wavelength range, imaging mode and imaging system. Spectral data acquired using a hyperspectral imaging system contain variations due to external factors and imaging components. Moreover, food samples are complex matrices with conditions of surface and internal heterogeneities, which may lead to variations in acquired data. Hence, before extracting information, these variations and noises must be reduced from the data using reference-dependent or reference-independent spectral pre-processing techniques. Using of the entire hyperspectral data for information extraction is tedious and time-consuming. In order to overcome this, exploratory data analysis techniques are used to select crucial wavelengths from the excessive hyperspectral data. Using appropriate chemometric techniques (supervised or unsupervised learning techniques) on this pre-processed hyperspectral data, qualitative or quantitative information from sample can be obtained. Qualitative information for analysing of the chemical composition, detecting of the defects and determining the purity of the food product can be extracted using discriminant analysis techniques. Quantitative information including variation in chemical constituents and contamination levels in food and agricultural sample can be extracted using categorical regression techniques. In combination with appropriate spectra pre-processing and chemometric technique, hyperspectral imaging stands out as an advanced quality evaluation system for food and agricultural products.
