The results show that the relative errors of permanganate index (COD) in neural network and multiple regression are 9.68% and 17.48%, respectively; 3.81% and 3.36% in dissolved oxygen (DO); 1.25% and 1.58% in hydrogen ion (pH); in ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N), it is 15.39% and 24.97%, respectively. The lowest COD in the study area is 6.2 mg/L and the highest is 9.8 mg/L; in 2018, the DO is 5.81 mg/L at the lowest and 9.05 mg/L at the highest; the lowest pH is 5.9 mg/L, the highest is 8.54 mg/L, and the lowest NH3-N is 0.22 mg/L, the highest is 0.41 mg/L. The inversion results of the overall pollutant concentration in the study area are consistent with the actual situation, with only some slight deviations in some areas. The two inversion models can effectively monitor the water quality and spatial distribution of Dianchi Lake. The remote sensing inversion model of water quality has the value of in-depth research and promotion.","PeriodicalId":17079,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Spectroscopy","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85621052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the Kubelka–Munk (K-M) function of diffuse reflectance absorption spectrum, absorbance (A) is approximately linear with the content of the components when the sample scattering coefficient (S) is in a certain range. The S is determined by the particle size of powder samples. Therefore, this study determined particle size ranges that satisfy linear additivity in near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (NIRDRS). Thus, the proposed NIRDRS analysis technique can be used to determine the homogeneity of material mixes or analyze the percentages of the components in the mixture. In this study, vitamin B3 and vitamin C were used for preparing mixed samples with varying percentages. The experimental results revealed that linear additivity is satisfied when the powder particle size is in the range of less than 280, 280–450, and 450–900 μm. When the confidence level is 0.01, the actual mixed spectra are not significantly different from the “simulated mixed spectra” constructed by linear addition, with their relative deviations less than 1.08%. The absolute errors of the actual and analytic percentages were within 2.98% for each component in the mixtures. The above conclusions also hold for sorghum, which has a complex material composition. Statistical models cannot analyze the percentages of components in the mixture. In contrast, linear addition and direct calibration approach avoids the use of a large number of samples for statistical modeling and analyze the percentages of mixed samples. Meanwhile, it can be used to discriminate and analyze the material mixing uniformity by building a mechanistic model.","PeriodicalId":17079,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Spectroscopy","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87977796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Characteristics of opals mined from different geological locality were examined. Six opal samples were collected from the main mining sites found in different localities from Delanta district and characterized using Fourier infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy characterization techniques. The scanning electron microscope micrographs showed that all the samples have relatively semi-ordered (semi-crystalline) structural surface morphologies composed of tiny spherical particles. The performed X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the samples have main peaks at 20.0°, 21.72°, 36.9°, 44.0°, and 56.85° with 2\u0000 \u0000 θ\u0000 \u0000 values between 10° and 60°. The five diffraction peaks are characteristic peak positions of opal-CT. The Fourier infrared spectroscopy data indicated that the prominent absorption bands for cristobalite at 620 and 520 cm−1 were absent from the spectrum. Instead, three bands in the low frequency region centered at 470, 791, and 1100 cm−1 were observed because of the absorptions of the silicate framework (Si-O) vibrations. red−1−1 Moreover,spectra feature of molecular water and silanol (Si-OH) groups with broadabsorption band centered around 3447 cm-1 andthe O-H stretching vibration of watermolecules and water bending vibration withan absorption band centered around 1634 cm-1were observed..

Therefore, it is crucial to detect whether a loquat is bruised and when it is bruised to save storage and transportation costs. At present, the bruise of loquats is mainly discriminated by the operator’s naked eye, which is affected by personal habits, light intensity, and subjective psychological factors. The detection method is time-consuming, inaccurate, inefficient, and difficult to identify the bruise’s time of loquats. Due to the fact that the color features can be used to perform the conditions of the darkened and brownish regions in bruise’s loquats, the combined spectral information and the color features method is proposed to accurately detect the storage time of mild bruise’s loquats in this study. In order to reduce economic losses, different methods are used to deal with the loquats at the corresponding bruise’s time. Loquats with four types of bruise’s time, including 6, 12, 24, and 36 h, are studied. Models with four types of characteristics, including spectral information, RGB features combined with spectral information, HSI features combined with spectral information, and mixed color features combined with spectral information (mixed-spectral), are established based on linear discriminant analysis (LDA), support vector machine (SVM), and least-squares support vector machine (LS-SVM). The investigated 400 independent samples with four bruise’s time conditions are utilized to assess the classification ability of the proposed methods. The results indicate that the Mixed-RBF-LS-SVM model has the lowest errors, and the accuracies of storage time of mild bruise’s loquats at 6, 12, 24, and 36 h are 100%, 92%, 92%, and 100%, respectively. The overall accuracy of the LS-SVM model based on mixed-spectral is 96%, and it demonstrates that the combined spectral information and color features method can be used to accurately detect the bruise’s time of loquats. Finally, the LS-SVM model based on mixed-spectral is optimized by UVE, SPA, CARS, and GA, respectively; it is found that the UVE-LS-SVM model based on mixed-spectral is the best, and the overall accuracy is 92%. It also lays a foundation for future studies about detecting the bruise’s time of fruits with a high-precision, rapid, and nondestructive measurement.","PeriodicalId":17079,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Spectroscopy","volume":"84 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83979416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The goal of feature selection is to associate the selected variables with the property of interest, which many have done successfully. However, many of selection methods focus only on strong association with the analytes or properties of interest, neglecting correlations between variables. A variable selection method based on a fast nondominated-ranking genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) was proposed in this paper for qualitative discrimination of NIR spectra. The method had two objective functions: (1) maximizing the sum of ratios of interclass variance to intraclass variance, (2) minimizing the sum of correlation coefficients between the selected variables. FT-NIR spectra of a total of 124 tobacco samples from different origins and parts in Guizhou Province, China, were used as the experimental objects, and the part-grade discrimination models of tobacco leaves were established by combining this method with partial least squares-based discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), and compared with PLS-DA model based on the full spectrum. The results showed that the performance of PLS-DA model with the NSGA-II was improved, with a comparable or better correct discrimination rate and reasonable discrimination rate, and could discriminate different parts of the tobacco leaves well. It indicates that the NSGA-II can select a few and effective feature variables to build a high-performance qualitative discrimination model and is proved to be a promising algorithm. In addition, the method is not designed exclusively for spectral data. It is a general strategy that could be used for variable selection for other types of data.","PeriodicalId":17079,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Spectroscopy","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80278241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
