Correlation of odor and color profiles of oysters (Crassostrea virginica) with electronic nose and color machine vision.


ABSTRACT Odor and color changes in oysters (Crassostrea virginica) stored at 1.8[degrees] and 7[degrees]C were measuredevery 3 days for up [o 13 days with an electronic nose, a computer vision system, and sensory panels. Electronic nose and odor sensory data was analyzed using Discriminant Function Analysis Discriminant function analysis involves the predicting of a categorical dependent variable by one or more continuous or binary independent variables. It is statistically the opposite of MANOVA.  (DFA DFA - Deterministic Finite-state Automaton. See Finite State Machine. ). Correct classification rates of 100% were obtained to group electronic nose data by days and sensory scores at each temperature. When all temperature and days data were pooled, DFA predicted sensory scores based on electronic nose readings with 94% accuracy. Oyster colors were analyzed using the 512 color block scheme. Eight colors were found to be significant. The correlations of these colors, as well as the average L*a*b* values with time and with color sensory data suggested prediction of color not of the white race; - commonly meaning, esp. in the United States, of negro blood, pure or mixed.

INTRODUCTION

Oysters are a variable commodity worldwide. In 1998, United Slates' domestic landings of oysters by weight of meat was 15,213 metric tons, valued at $88 million (U.S. Department of Commerce, 1999). Imports increased from 4,506 metric tons in 1997 to 6,169 metric tons, valued at $25 million, in 1998.

Oysters have a distinctive odor and flavor. Fresh shellfish shellfish, popular name for certain edible mollusks (see Mollusca), e.g., oysters, clams, and scallops, and for certain edible crustaceans, e.g., crabs, lobsters, and shrimps. All are aquatic invertebrates with shells; they are not fish.  products indicates typical aquatic fresh odor, brilliant appearance and physical peculiarities of the species in good situation (Perkins et al. 1992). The odor of seafood has been widely used as one of the signs of quality for a long lime (Botta et al. 1995), the flesh color is a measure of the freshness of the seafood and research proves that consumers equate freshness with the vibrancy of the flesh color (Beaudoin, 1997).

Most studies regarding shellfish quality have focused on taste-acttive and flavor components (Sekiwa et al., 1997; Ok et al., 1996; Lee et al., 1995; Tanchoticul and Hsieh, 1991). Effects of chemical and other treatments on the taste and color of shellfish were also studied (Jawahar et al., 1994; Chellappan, 1991).

Fresh shellfish products should be marketed as fast as possible since their shelf life is very short. A critical commercial step after sorting is the inspection of the product. Current techniques concerning the quality assessments of oysters rely on sensory inspections that use the senses of vision, smell, etc. These are difficult to quantify to compare with objective standards and their results are not sufficiently repeatable. There is a necessity for objective, more reliable and quick technique to evaluate the quality of shucked oyster, to serve for these sector and international markets.

Developments in sensor technology and electronic noses (EN) have many potential applications in the food industry (Bartlett el al., 1997; Corcoran et al., 1993) including flavor and aroma profiles fresh squeezed orange juice, coffee powder, beer and cheese (Bazemore et al., 1996; Delaure et al., 1996; Pearce et al., 1993; Jou and Harper, 1998), quality control area of grapes, olive oil olive oil, pale yellow to greenish oil obtained from the pulp of olives by separating the liquids from solids. Olive oil was used in the ancient world for lighting, in the preparation of food, and as an anointing oil for both ritual and cosmetic purposes. , ground beef, (Tokusoglu and Balaban, 2000; Aparicio et al., 2000; Winquist et al., 1993), aroma discrimination of black teas (Tokusoglu et al. 2002; Tokusoglu, 2001), separation of spice and grain mixture (Brezmes et al., 1997; Borjesson et al., 1996), among others. Some work was published on the correlation of EN sensor outputs with sensory data in seafood products. EN has been applied to odor evaluation of seafood (Dodd et al., 2000; Luzuriaga, 1999; Balaban et al., 1996; Balaban et al., 1994).

Computer vision is being used in some food and agricultural areas to automate the inspection of visual quality (Sarkar Sarkar could mean:

There is reported research in the application of the machine vision technology for quality evaluation of seafood (Balaban et al., 1994; Balaban et al., 1996; Luzuriaga et al., 1995; Luzuriaga et al., 1997; Newman et al., 1998), for grading and sorting (Par et al., 1995; Diehl et al., 1990) and for shape detection (So et al., 1996). No study could be found concerning quality determination of oysters with E-nose and computer vision for objective evaluation. The objectives of this study were 1) to develop predictive models of odor change in shucked oysters stored at 1.8, and 7[degrees]C using an electronic nose, 2) to correlate these readings with sensory evaluation data, 3) to develop models of color change in these samples using machine vision and correlate them with visual sensory evaluation data.

A covered beaker containing oyster samples was taken out of the cold room one hour before analysis and equilibrated to room temperature (25[degrees]C). The beaker was then placed in the EN. Five consecutive readings were taken for each sample. Then, the replicate sample was taken out of the cold room and treated similarly. For each reading, the vessel and head were purged with dry air for 2 and 4 min, respectively. Then. sensor responses were read for 4 min. For each sample total analysis time was 10 min.

In this experiment, the settings for the video camera were: hue = 0, saturation = 160, contrast = 160, and brightness = 148 (for a range from 0 to 255). During image acquisition a standard color the (beige, L = 63.59, a = 65.19, b = 33.39) was placed next to the oyster samples in the light box.

For each sampling day, the small petri dish was removed from the cold room, placed in the light box with front and back lighting, the image of oysters stored 1.8 and 7.0[degrees]C was captured and saved in a computer file. The petri dish was then placed back in the cold room. The same samples were used throughout the experiment. This study was repeated twice. Oysters remained at room temperature for no more than about 5 min daring image capture.

Images were calibrated by the color analysis software using the standard color the (Luzuriaga, 1999). The color of the calibrated images was reported in the RGB (Red Green Blue) The computer's native color space, which is the color system for capturing and displaying images. RGB was derived from our own perception of color because human eyes are sensitive to red, green and blue (see trichromaticity).  and L, a, b color systems. The 512-color blocks scheme was used for the RGB colors (Luzuriaga, 1999). The value for each color block was the percent of the view area of the oyster covered by that color. Colors that were more than 5% of the total area were considered.

Sensory Evaluation

Data Analysis

Discriminant Function Analysis (DFA), a parametric procedure to identify relationships between qualitative variables such as sensory descriptors, odor, color classes, anti quantitative variables such as sensor response, was used. It tries to classify samples into known groups by constructing linear relationships for the sensor data or color data and the criterion set of variables. This method generates functions that are used to classify samples. Each discriminant function discriminant function

Function 1 gives the most separation between groups, function 2 gives the next best separation, and so on. Generally the first two functions are sufficient to separate the groups. E-nose sensor readings, color vision data and sensory scores were analyzed in Statistica for Windows ('98 edition, Ver. 6.0, StatSoft Inc., Tulsa, OK) using discriminant function analysis (DFA) to develop the predictive functions for oysters stored at different temperatures and storage times, and to correlate these with sensory data.

In this study, the 12 sensor outputs in E-nose analysis and 8 color outputs obtained from color analysis were reduced to 2 discriminant functions. These functions were used to graph the data in two dimensional plots and observe separation of groups. For each function, coefficients and correct classification matrix were obtained.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

E-nose readings with odor sensory evaluation data for oyster stored at different temperatures for different times were correlated and also machine vision readings with color sensory evaluations for oyster stored at two different temperature for up to 13 days were correlated using Discriminant Function Analysis. Figure 1 indicates DFA correlations of EN readings with sensory criteria data at two storage temperature. For 1.8 and 7.0[degrees]C, all temperature and days pooled data, discriminant function analysis perfectly separated the E-nose data with correct classification rates of 100%. 100%, 94% respectively (Table 1).

The differences between the two replicate of sensory scores of both temperatures were not significant (P < 0.01).

At two temperatures, some panelists could evaluate udder udder: see mammary gland.  differences with difficulty between successive days while EN detected these differences clearly. After Day 3, panelists could not discriminate odor of semideteriorated and deteriorated oyster samples and these were evaluated as putrefactive aroma. When all temperature and days data were pooled together, DFA predicted sensory scores based on electronic nose readings with 94% accuracy.

DFA was used to calculate two discriminant functions to correlate EN readings with storage time at both temperature. Table 3 shows coefficients for Discriminant Functions to estimate oyster odor based on storage times at 1.8[degrees]C, 7.0[degrees]C and both temperatures with EN.

DFA analysis of e-nose odor data correlated with storage time at 1.8, 7.0[degrees]C gave correct classification rates of 100% and 100%, respectively (Table 4). There was no differences between the number of Electronic Nose readings (n) used to obtain the discriminant functions (P < 0.01). Figure 2 shows a clear discrimination for up to 13 days at both temperature. As shown in these figures, there was no overlap in days, meaning that there were definite differences in the sensor readings for each day of storage.

[FIGURE 2 OMITTED]

Computer vision could clearly quantify non-uniform colors of oyster. Classification functions of the correlation between color data and storage time, as well as color sensory evaluation data, were obtained. When classified by day at each temperature, the classification rates for 1.8[degrees]C and 7.0 [degrees]C were 100% and 100%, respectively. Classification of color data by sensory readings gave classification rate of 100%, 100%, respectively.

Eight colors were found to be significant for oyster color quality with RGB color system. The correlations of these colors, as well as the average L*a*b* values with time and with color sensory data suggested prediction of color quality.

Figure 3 shows average L*a*b* values of oysters stored at 1.8[degrees]C. The lightness scale (L) differences of oyster samples for both replicates were not significant (p < 0.01). Redness or greenness (a) and yellowness or blueness (b) can reflect a single color function called color difference Refers to the method of encoding color information in video/TV signals.

According to L*a*b* results, the differences of oyster color stored for up to 13 days could not be clearly determined (Fig. 3).

[FIGURE 3 OMITTED]

The panelists judged differences in color quality in both temperatures during storage time and in the same samples evaluated for up to 13 days (Table 5). Table 5 indicates color sensory scores of oysters stored al 1.8 [degrees]C and 7[degrees]C by the sensory panel. Oyster color changed with storage time. The differences between the two replicates of sensory scores of both temperatures were not significant (p < 0.01).

At 1.8[degrees]C and 7.0[degrees]C. panelists could not evaluate color quality differences after day 3, whereas machine vision clearly determined these differences between semideteriorated and dull, slimy samples.

Each color block of oyster and RGB values of these colors were determined using the color machine vision system and the eight colors obtained are shown in Table 6.

Six of the 8 colors were identified as deteriorated color whereas the remaining two were represented by yellow and orange hues.

During storage time, good color, or Color 73 (RGB = 245,241,273), was decreased over time, and fresh oyster appearance was decreased as show in Fig. 4(a). The level of this color was decreased to around 17% for storage at 1.8[degrees]C and 8% for 7.0[degrees]C from around 29%. [Fig. 4(a)]. There were no significant differences between the two replicates of color analysis (p < 0.01). While computer vision was determined deterioration from after day 3, objectively; sensory criteria could not evaluate visual quality of oysters. Color (145 + 146) (RGB = 80,80,64) increased over time and level of this color was increased to around 27% for storage at 1.8[degrees]C and 36% for 7.0[degrees]C from around 16%, respectively [Fig. 4(b)]. These additional colors were responsible for the grayish-dark hue of deteriorated oyster.

[FIGURE 4 OMITTED]

E-nose and machine vision data can be used in pattern recognition for objective classification of oyster. With comprehensive study oyster samples by odor and color, the e-nose can be used reliably to classify and machine vision can objectively classify oyster samples by color.

DFA can be used satisfactorily as a pattern recognition analysis technique in food engineering area for the identification and determination of seafood odor and color.
