    Combination of spectral and textural features of hyperspectral imaging for the authentication of the diet supplied to fattening cattle
    (Elsevier, 2024) León Ecay, Sara; Insausti Barrenetxea, Kizkitza; Arazuri Garín, Silvia; Goenaga Uceda, Irantzu; López Maestresalas, Ainara; Agronomía, Biotecnología y Alimentación; Agronomia, Bioteknologia eta Elikadura; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza; Institute on Innovation and Sustainable Development in Food Chain - ISFOOD; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    This study explored the potential of hyperspectral imaging in the near infrared region (NIR-HSI) as a non-destructive and rapid tool to discriminate among two beef fattening diets. For that purpose, a feeding trial was carried out with a total of 24 purebred Pirenaica calves. Twelve of them were fed barley and straw (BS) while 11 animals were finished on vegetable by-products (VBPR). When comparing the reference measurements of the meat coming from those animals, only the total collagen ratio expressed the feeding effect (p-value<0.05). To undertake the authentication procedure, two discrimination approaches were run: partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and radial basis function-support vector machine (RBF-SVM). To precisely extract spectral and textural information from the lean portion of the meat steaks, various techniques were executed, such as principal component (PC) images, competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS) for selecting optimal wavelengths, and gray-level-co-occurrence matrix (GLCM). After hyperspectral imaging and the combination of their own texture features, samples were classified according to feeding diet with an overall accuracy of 72.92% for PLS-DA and 80.56% for RBF-SVM. So, the potential of using HSI technology to authenticate the meat obtained from beef supplied a diet based on circular economy techniques was made in evidence.

    Mapping acrylamide content in potato chips using near-infrared hyperspectral imaging and chemometrics
    (Elsevier, 2025-03-14) Peraza Alemán, Carlos Miguel; López Maestresalas, Ainara; Jarén Ceballos, Carmen; Ruiz de Galarreta, José Ignacio; Barandalla, Leire; Arazuri Garín, Silvia; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza; Institute on Innovation and Sustainable Development in Food Chain - ISFOOD
    This study investigated the potential of near-infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) for the prediction of acrylamide content in potato chips. A total of 300 tubers from two potato varieties (Agria and Jaerla) grown in two seasons and processed under the same frying conditions were analysed. Partial Least Square Regression (PLSR) and Support Vector Machine Regression (SVMR), combined with a logarithmic transformation of the acrylamide levels, were applied to develop predictive models. The most optimal outcomes for PLSR yielded R2 p: 0.85, RMSEP: 201 μg/kg and RPD: 2.53, while for SVMR yielded R2 p: 0.80, RMSEP: 229 μg/kg and RPD: 2.22. Furthermore, the selection of significant wavelengths enabled an 87.95 % reduction in variables without affecting the model’s accuracy. Finally, spatial mapping of acrylamide content was conducted on all chips in the external validation set. This method provides both quantification and visualization capabilities, thus enhancing quality control for acrylamide identification in processed potatoes.

    A systematized review on the applications of hyperspectral imaging for quality control of potatoes
    (Springer, 2024) Peraza Alemán, Carlos Miguel; López Maestresalas, Ainara; Jarén Ceballos, Carmen; Rubio Padilla, Niuton; Arazuri Garín, Silvia; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza; Institute on Innovation and Sustainable Development in Food Chain - ISFOOD; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    The application of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has gained signifcant importance in the past decade, particulary in the context of food analysis, including potatoes. However, the current literature lacks a comprehensive systematic review of the application of this technique in potato cultivation. Therefore, the aim of this work was to conduct a systematized review by analysing the most relevant compounds, diseases and stress factors in potatoes using hyperspectral imaging. For this purpose, scientifc studies were retrieved through a systematic keyword search in Web of Science and Scopus databases. Studies were only included in the review if they provided at least one set of quantitative data. As a result, a total of 52 unique studies were included in the review. Eligible studies were assigned an in-house developed quality scale identifying them as high, medium or low risk. In most cases the studies were rated as low risk. Finally, a comprehensive overview of the HSI applications in potatoes was performed. It has been observed that most of the selected studies obtained better results using linear methods. In addition, a meta-analysis of studies based on regression and classifcation was attempted but was not possible as not enough studies were found for a specifc variable.
