Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to classify VOC gases by emulating the characteristics found in biological olfaction. For this purpose, we propose new signal processing method based a polymeric chemical sensor array consisting of 4096 sensors which is created by NEUROCHEM project. To remove unstable sensors generated in the manufacturing process of very large scaled chemical sensor array, we used discrete wavelet transformation and cosine similarity. And, to remove the supernumerary redundancy, we proposed the method of selecting candidates of representative sensor representing sensors with similar features by Fuzzy c-means algorithm. In addition, we proposed an improved algorithm for selecting representative sensors among candidates of representative sensors to better enhance classification ability. However, Classification for very large scaled sensor array has a great deal of time in process of learning because many sensors are used for learning though a redundancy is removed. Throughout experimental trials for classification, we confirmed the proposed method have an outstanding classification ability, at transient state as well as steady state.
