Hyperspectral imaging for seed quality and safety inspection: a review

Hyperspectral imaging has attracted great attention as a non-destructive and fast method for seed quality and safety assessment in recent years. The capability of this technique for classification and grading, viability and vigor detection, damage (defect and fungus) detection, cleanness detection and seed composition determination is illustrated by presentation of applications in quality and safety determination of seed in this review. The summary of hyperspectral imaging technology for seed quality and safety inspection for each category is also presented, including the analyzed spectral range, sample varieties, sample status, sample numbers, features (spectral features, image features, feature extraction methods), signal mode and data analysis strategies. The successful application of hyperspectral imaging in seed quality and safety inspection proves that many routine seed inspection tasks can be facilitated with hyperspectral imaging.
