Use of different artificial neural networks to resolve binary blends of monocultivar Italian olive oils.

The problem of authenticating extra virgin olive oil varieties is particularly important from the standpoint of quality control. After having shown in our previous works the possibility of discriminating oils from a single variety using chemometrics, in this study a combination of two different neural networks architectures was employed for the resolution of simulated binary blends of oils from different cultivars. In particular, a Kohonen self-organizing map was used to select the samples to include in the training, test and validation sets, needed to operate the successive calibration stage, which has been carried out by means of several multilayer feed-forward neural networks. The optimal model resulted in a validation Q2 in the range 0.91-0.96 (10 data sets), corresponding to an average prediction error of about 5-7.5%, which appeared significantly better than in the case of random or Kennard-Stone selection.
