Supervised pattern recognition to authenticate Italian extra virgin olive oil varieties

Applications of Artificial Neural Networks in Chemical Problems

“…Some examples of application of ANNs in this area include vegetable oil studies [130][131][132][133][134][135][136][137][138], beers [139], wines [140], honeys [141][142] and water [143][144].…”

Olive Oil Traceability

“…Only double bonds signals have been used for the analysis. Fatty acids composition and fatty chain positional distribution on glycerol moiety determined by 13 C NMR spectroscopy allow, in combination with the multivariate statistical procedure, the classification of olive oils according to their variety (Marini et al, 2004(Marini et al, , 2006. 31 P NMR spectroscopy has been employed for the detection and quantification of the minor compounds mono-and diacylglycerols, polyphenols, sterols, phospholipids and for the determination of free acidity and moisture (Petrakis et al, 2008).…”

Near Infrared Spectroscopy in Drug Discovery and Development Processes

“…Pattern recognition methods are often applied in chemistry [37], biology [38], and food science [39]. The main goal is to assign new samples reliably to preexisting classes.…”
