Hyperspectral imaging combined with chemometric approaches is proven to be a powerful tool for the quality evaluation and control of fruits. In fruit defect-detection scenarios, developing an unsupervised anomaly detection framework is vital, as defect sample preparation is labor-intensive and time-consuming, especially for exploring potential defects. In this paper, a spectral–spatial, information-based, self-supervised anomaly detection (SSAD) approach is proposed. During training, an auxiliary classifier is proposed to identify the projection axes of principal component (PC) images that were transformed from the hyperspectral data cubes. In test time, the fully connected layer of the learned classifier was used as a ‘spectral–spatial’ feature extractor, and the feature similarity metric was adopted as the score function for the downstream anomaly evaluation task. The proposed network was evaluated with two fruit data sets: a strawberry data set with bruised, infected, chilling-injured, and contaminated test samples and a blueberry data set with bruised, infected, chilling-injured, and wrinkled samples as anomalies. The results show that the SSAD yielded the best anomaly detection performance (AUC = 0.923 on average) over the baseline methods, and the visualization results further confirmed its advantage in extracting effective ‘spectral–spatial’ latent representation. Moreover, the robustness of SSAD is verified with the data pollution experiment; it performed significantly better than the baselines when a portion of anomalous samples was involved in the training process. |
