Fast and Efficient Food Quality Control Using Electronic Noses: Adulteration Detection Achieved by Unfolded Cluster Analysis Coupled with Time-Window Selection
The objective of this work is to report the improvements obtained in the discrimination of complex aroma samples with subtle differences in odor pattern, by the use of a fast procedure suitable for the cases of measurements in the field demanding decision-making in real time using a portable electro...
