Quantitative analysis of blended corn-olive oil based on Raman spectroscopy and one-dimensional convolutional neural network

Abstract

Blended vegetable oil is a vital product in the vegetable oil market, and quantifying high-value vegetable oil is of great significance to protect the rights and interests of consumers. In this study, we established a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D CNN) quantitative identification model based on Raman spectra to identify the amount of olive oil in a corn-olive oil blend. The results show that the 1D CNN model based on 315 extended average Raman spectra can quantitatively identify the content of olive oil, with R²p and RMSEP values of 0.9908 and 0.7183 respectively. Compared with partial least squares regression (PLSR) and support vector regression (SVR), although the index is not optimal, it provides a new analytical method for the quantitative identification of vegetable oil.
