Abstract

In this paper, we suggest method that change odors to digital data. For this, we selected emotional adjective of odors as olfactory receptor This emotional adjective(expressional receptor) is about 40. Each odors are expressed by adjective equivalent to oneself. Expressed odors as emotional receptor is encoded as proposed method for transmission, and after transmission, It should be decoded for expression again. The applied decoding method is fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm(FCMA). But, because odor data is expressed to 40 dimensions, FCMA uses a lot of computing times and memories. To solve this problem, after we reduce dimension through principal component analysis(PCA), we use FCMA algorithm.
