Abstract

This research investigates the use of predictive models and a low cost spectroscopy in non-invasive Soluble Solids Content (SSC) assessment. The challenge is to model complex and high-dimensional spectral data.  Results indicate that the SSC prediction of pineapples harvested on different days using the proposed approach is promising. The second study evaluates common pre-processing practices. Findings indicate that the best accuracy would be achieved when visible spectrum was excluded, second order Savitzky-Golay derivative with the optimal filter length was used, and the absorbance transformation was avoided.
