Abstract

Raman spectrum preprocessing method for automatic denoising and suppression of the fluorescent background. In this method, noise is reduced using wavelet transform, and a modified polynomial curve fitting method is implemented such that an algorithm can independently identify the optimal curve parameters for fluorescent background suppression. To address the problem of imbalanced datasets, the present study employed a synthetic minority oversampling technique to increase the volume of data in minority classes. This technique enables the prediction of pesticides that are otherwise difficult to detect, and the prediction accuracy is comparable to that of detection with large data volumes. The proposed convolutional neural network model was verified to accurately identify the type of single pesticides and composition of mixed pesticides. The prediction accuracy for mixed pesticides reached 99.1%.
