1 MICROWAVE DIELECTRIC SPECTRA AND THE COMPOSITION OF FOODS: PRINCIPAL COMPONENT ANALYSIS VERSUS ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS.

2 Michael Kent, Frank Daschner, Reinhard Knöchel Christian Albrechts University of Kiel, Germany.

3 Complex dielectric permittivity e* f = e f - je f Dispersion, energy storage Loss factor, energy dissipation

4 Dielectric spectra for Chicken at 30 C: 2 hours in 2% polyphosphate e',e" outlier mean 10 x s.d. replicates 0 1.0E E E E+11 frequency (Hz)

5 Multivariate analysis

6 Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Y j = c 1j X 1 + c 2j X c pj X p.

7 45.00 PC PC2 e' at 12GHz e' at 6GHz

8 Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Y j = c 1j X 1 + c 2j X c pj X p X values are collinear,

9 Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Y j = c 1j X 1 + c 2j X c pj X p X values are collinear, Y values are orthogonal.

10 Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Y j = c 1j X 1 + c 2j X c pj X p X values are collinear, Y values are orthogonal. Data reduction: n values of Y replace p>n values of X

11 Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Y j = c 1j X 1 + c 2j X c pj X p X values are collinear, Y values are orthogonal. Data reduction: n values of Y replace p>n values of X Principal component Regression (PCR)

12 Principal Component Analysis (PCA) Y j = c 1j X 1 + c 2j X c pj X p X values are collinear, Y values are orthogonal. Data reduction: n values of Y replace p>n values of X Principal component Regression (PCR) k responses y, n Principal Components Y y k = a k + 1 n b ki Y i

13 Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR)

14 Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) Similar to PCR but y values included in optimisation process.

15 Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) Similar to PCR but y values included in optimisation process. Constructs linear combinations of inputs incorporating y

16 Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) Similar to PCR but y values included in optimisation process. Construct linear combinations of inputs incorporating y Finds directions with maximum variance and correlation with the output

17 Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) Similar to PCR but y values included in optimisation process. Construct linear combinations of inputs incorporating y Finds directions with maximum variance and correlation with the output Partial least squares regression operates like principal component regression

18 Principal Components Regression Regress on n < p principal components of X

19 Principal Components Regression Regress on n < p principal components of X Partial Least Squares Regression Regress on n < p directions of X weighted by y

20 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN)

21 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) y = f(x,w)

22 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) X variables measured y = f(x,w)

23 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) y = f(x,w) X variables measured W weighting vector or activation function

24 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) Activation function of neurons

25 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) Activation function of neurons: linear-emulates PCR

26 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) Activation function of neurons: linear-emulates PCR non-linear- more general

27 Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) Activation function of neurons: linear-emulates PCR non-linear- more general- sigmoid, tansig or logsig tansig(n)=2/(1+exp(-2n))-2
