A Model Transfer Learning Framework With Back-Propagation Neural Network for Wine and Chinese Liquor Detection by Electronic Nose

Electronic nose, as a non-destructive instrument, is widely used in the field of gas analysis. In this work, E-nose was employed to distinguish wines and Chinese liquors by means of a machine learning technique. First, a multi-hidden layers Back-Propagation Neural Network (BPNN) was designed to build an identification model for the classification of different wines. Then, a BPNN-based transfer-learning framework was developed with minimal changes to the architecture of the BPNN-based model which was trained on the wine sample dataset. Experimental results revealed that the BPNN-based model performed with a 98.27% accuracy in identifying different wines, and the BPNN-based transfer-learning framework performed with a 93.4% accuracy in identifying Chinese liquors by only re-training the output layer. This reduced the model training costs compared with the complete retraining of a new classification model. Results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed BPNN-based transfer-learning model, which was capable of identifying different kinds of wines based on their own properties and could be easily applied to the classification of Chinese liquors. The model-based transfer learning framework offered promising potential for different classification tasks of various beverage.
