Abstract:

In recent years, problems with the quality of Chinese bacon such as acid value and peroxide value exceeding
the standards, fading, oil exudation and sticky feeling to the touch have received growing attention. A fast, accurate and
practical detection technology was developed to evaluate Chinese bacon quality. According to the relevant national standards
as well as the results of acid value, peroxide value and total bacterial number in bacon samples measured by biochemical
methods as the input of self-organizing feature map, the bacon samples were divided into four categories: safe to eat,
edible, not recommended to eat and inedible. The acid value and peroxide value of bacon were detected using near infrared
spectroscopy. The root mean square error prediction (RMSEP) results after the selection were 41% and 57% of those before
selecting wavelengths by the genetic algorithms. The selected number of wavelength was 1/3 of the total number of the
whole wavelength. Plaque area information was obtained by microscopic imaging technology, which has greatly improved
many problems with traditional testing methods for the determination of total bacterial numbers, such as complex operation,
subjectivity and time consuming. Finally, a quick discriminant model for grading the edibility of Chinese bacon was
established using the support vector machine approach based on the near-infrared spectral data and microscopic image data.

Key words: near infrared spectroscopy, multi-data fusion, support vector machine, Chinese bacon
