Abstract
The present study proposes the development of new wine recognition models based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) applied to the mid-level data fusion of H NMR and Raman data. In this regard, a supervised machine learning method, namely Support Vector Machines (SVMs), was applied for classifying wine samples with respect to the cultivar, vintage, and geographical origin. Because the association between the two data sources generated an input space with a high dimensionality, a feature selection algorithm was employed to identify the most relevant discriminant markers for each wine classification criterion, before SVM modeling. The proposed data processing strategy allowed the classification of the wine sample set with accuracies up to 100% in both cross-validation and on an independent test set and highlighted the efficiency of H NMR and Raman data fusion as opposed to the use of a single-source data for differentiating wine concerning the cultivar and vintage.
