This study addresses the challenge of multi-dimensional and small gas sensor data classification using a gelatin–carbon black (CB-GE) composite film sensor, achieving 91.7% accuracy in differentiating gas types (ethanol, acetone, and air). Key techniques include Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for dimensionality reduction, the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) for data augmentation, and the Support Vector Machine (SVM) and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) algorithms for classification. PCA improved KNN and SVM classification, boosting the Area Under the Curve (AUC) scores by 15.7% and 25.2%, respectively. SMOTE increased KNN’s accuracy by 2.1%, preserving data structure better than polynomial fitting. The results demonstrate a scalable approach to enhancing classification accuracy under data constraints. This approach shows promise for expanding gas sensor applicability in fields where data limitations previously restricted reliability and effectiveness.
