description | Currently, herbs recognition system has become a promising method to identify
herbs species. Misuse of herbal medicine can cause serious health problems
due to toxicological effects of phytochemical. As a result, a system that able to
distinguish the types of herbs is needed. Most herbs recognition systems
available in the market are dependent on experts. In this research, the concern
is to identify the herbs compounds within the same group species where the
physical appearance and aroma are similar. The work mainly focuses on herbs
recognition systems that intended for researchers and medical practitioners use
without the need for experts.
The study is mainly based on chemical and physical properties as well as the
combination of both. Hence, three feature extraction methods for herbs
recognition system based on chemical and physical properties of herbs are
presented. Electronic Nose (E-Nose) devices have been used extensively to
differentiate and characterize the herb species based on their unique odor.
Electrical signal generated from the gas sensor array is one of the physical
properties studied. Then, a Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GCMS)
device is utilized to extract the chemical compound of herbs. The first feature
extraction technique in this research is Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and
selected feature based on electrical signal, however it is an unsupervised
learning. Thus, Multiple Discriminant Analysis (MDA) is proposed as the second
feature extraction technique. MDA is one of the supervised learning techniques
to replace PCA. The third feature extraction technique is proposed to develop an
automated GCMS system that differentiates the herbs species from the major
volatile compounds. The Weighted Histogram Analysis Method (WHAM) is proposed to make use of both major and minor volatile compounds in GCMS
herbs recognition system.
Fusion techniques have been extensively studied on multisensory environments.
Comparison between system with and without feature fusion techniques is
presented. In this research, 19 herbs species from 5 family groups are studied.
The robustness test of the three proposed herbs recognition systems are
performed via four classification models: Support Vector Machine (SVM), KNearest
Neighbors (KNN), Multinomial Logistic Regression (MLR), and
Gaussian Radial Basis Function (RBF) Kernel. In GCMS, the overall system
performance with WHAM improves the classification accuracy by average of
0.6%-38.34% using SVM and KNN. In E-Nose herbs recognition system, an
average between 0%-21.73% improvement in system performance with MDA.
The performance of classification accuracy using KNN shows a better result
within the family group from 92.15% to 100% compared to the other methods. In
addition, KNN method shows classification accuracy improvement in average of
99.58%-100% within the same family group.
As a conclusion, the system with KNN method is capable to classify herbs
species more accurately as compared to the other three classification method.
The innovation of this research could benefit especially the researchers, to
identify the plant species without relying on the expertise of botanists and forest
rangers for the learning and training process. |
