MPEG-V(ISO/IEC 23005) standardizes normative sensory effects metadata and sensory devices command for adapting the sensory effects between the virtual world and the real world. MPEG-V(Virtual) standardization has been carried out by 3DG(Dimensional Graphics) ad-hoc group inside MPEG Working Group(ISO IEC JTC1/SC29/WG11). For the scent effect, one of the sensory effects within MPEG-V, we proposed an olfactory interaction model including electronic nose and scent display to the ad-hoc group. Recently, we proposed types and elements related to the electronic nose as a sensor defined in MPEG-V standard for olfactory interaction. At the 114th MPEG meeting, the types and elements were consequently reflected on MPEG-V CD(Committee Draft) 4th edition. In this paper, we implement an electronic nose system applicable to MPEG-V standard by using MPEG-V schema, encoder, and decoder in order to assess their adequacy.

Disease discrimination using an electronic nose is achieved by measuring the presence of a specific gas contained in the exhaled breath of patients. Many studies have reported the presence of acetone in the breath of diabetic patients. These studies suggest that acetone can be used as a biomarker of diabetes, enabling diagnoses to be made by measuring acetone levels in exhaled breath. In this study, we perform a chemical sensor array optimization to improve the performance of an electronic nose system using Wilks' lambda, sensor selection based on a principal component (B4), and a stepwise elimination (SE) technique to detect the presence of acetone gas in human breath. By applying five different temperatures to four sensors fabricated from different synthetic materials, a total of 20 sensing combinations are created, and three sensing combinations are selected for the sensor array using optimization techniques. The measurements and analyses of the exhaled breath using the electronic nose system together with the optimized sensor array show that diabetic patients and control groups can be easily differentiated. The results are confirmed using principal component analysis (PCA).

본 연구는 전자 코 시스템을 이용하여 센서의 감응도, 주성분 분석, 판별분석을 통해 한우육의 향기 패턴을 구명하고, 이를 pH 및 TBARS 값과 비교함으로써 쇠고기의 신속한 향기 평가방법의 가능성을 모색하기 위해 실시하였다. 시료는 도축 후 24시간이 경과한 쇠고기의 등심을 5$\pm$1$^{\circ}C$에서 7일간 저장하면서 실험에 사용하였다. 저장기간이 증가함에 따라 SY/G, SY/AA, SY/Gh, SY/gCTl, SY/gCT 센서의 감응도(dR/R0) 값은 감소하였으나, SY/LG, T30/1, P10/1, P10/2, P40/1, T70/2, PA2 센서의 dR/R0 값은 증가하였다. 저장 1일과 3일째에서는 dR/R0 값이 SY/AA#, T70/2 센서에서만 유의적인 차이를 보였으나(p<0.05), 저장 7일째에서 저장1일과 비교하였을 때 12개의 센서가 모두 유의적인 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 감응도의 결과를 주성분 분석으로 mapping 하였을 때 저장 1일에 오른쪽 중간, 3일에 오른쪽 하단, 7일에 왼쪽에 길게 퍼져 군락이 형성되었다. 다시 판별분석으로 mapping을 하면 동일 저장기간내 군락이 집중되고, 저장기간별 군락군이 분산되어 뚜렷하게 구별되었다. 저장기간동안 육의 pH와 TBARS는 모두 어떤 항목과도 상관성을 보이지 않았으나, 모든 센서의 값이 각각 정 또는 역의 높은상관성을 가지고 있었다(p<0.001).

The electronic nose (e-nose) has been used in food industry and quality controls in plastic packaging. Recently it finds its applications in medical diagnosis, specifically on detection of diabetes, pulmonary or gastrointestinal problem, or infections by examining odors in the breath or tissues with its odor characterizing ability. Moreover, the use of portable e-nose enables the on-site measurements and analysis of vapors without extra gas-sampling units. This is expected to widen the application of the e-nose in various fields including point-of-care-test or e-health. In this study, a PDA-based portable e-nose was developed using micro-machined gas sensor array and miniaturized electronic interfaces. The rich capacities of the PDA in its computing power and various interfaces are expected to provide the rapid and application specific development of the diagnostic devices, and easy connection to other facilities through information technology (IT) infra. For performance verification of the developed portable e-nose system, Six different vapors were measured using the system. Seven different carbon-black polymer composites were used for the sensor array. The results showed the reproducibility of the measured data and the distinguishable patterns between the vapor species. Additionally, the application of two typical pattern recognition algorithms verified the possibility of the automatic vapor recognition from the portable measurements. These validated the portable e-nose based on PDA developed in this study.

In this paper, we proposed a post-processing technique for improving classification performance of electronic nose (E-Nose) system which may be occurred drift signals from sensor array. An adaptive radial basis function network using stochastic gradient (SG) and singular value decomposition (SVD) is applied to process signals from sensor array. Due to drift from sensor's aging and poisoning problems, the final classification results may be showed bias and fluctuations. The predicted classification results with drift are quantized to determine which identification level each class is on. To mitigate sharp fluctuations moving-averaging (MA) technique is applied to quantized identification results. Finally, quantization and some edge correction process are used to decide levels of the fluctuation-smoothed identification results. The proposed technique has been indicated that E-Nose system was shown correct odor identification results even if drift occurred in sensor array. It has been confirmed throughout the experimental works. The enhancements have produced a very robust odor identification capability which can compensate for decision errors induced from drift effects with sensor array in electronic nose system.

An Electronic Nose(E-Nose) and Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectroscopy (GC/MS) are meanwhile conventional technique to analyze volatile materials in many industries (e.g., food, medicine, environment) and have broad acceptance in the analysis of tobacco products. In this study, an experiment where tin oxide gas sensor array responses and GC/MS profiles are used to characterize the volatile compounds of different cigarettes at the same time is performed and the measurements of two instruments are compared for cigarette samples with a known chemical information. E-Nose and GC/MS were employed to differentiate and match flavored cigarettes with commercial tobacco flavoring agents (lavender, vanilla, peppermint, orange, star anise). For verifying reliability of two systems, the analyses were conducted in terms of amount of flavors in each cigarettes using partial least squares (PLS) and with the principal components analysis (PCA). Various chemical sensors and GC/MS data was reduced into two principal factors (PC1, PC2) for being distinguished with visualized regions. Both systems provided adequate results for odor characteristics of cigarettes in this study with each instrument having its own advantages and disadvantages.

Chemical characteristics of soybean oil after deep-frying with potato sticks (200 g, 10% w/w of soybean oil) were studied according to the 34 deep-frying times. After consecutive 34 deep-frying, total polyunsaturated FA contents was gradually decreased while the total saturated FA and trans FA were increased. Acid value and peroxide value were increased while iodine value decreased, respectively. The Hunter $L^{\ast}$ value decreased while each $a^{\ast}\;and \;b^{\ast}b$ value were gradually increased. Electronic nose equipped with 12 metal oxide sensors was used for the discrimination of odor pattern of frying oils against the times of deep-trying. The proportions of 1st and 2nd principal component analysis showed 75.97% and 21.23%, respectively. While 6 among total 12 sensors well responded to discrimination of odor in the repented frying oils, suggesting that the odor pattern of each oil after deep-frying would be discriminated against fresh soybean oil, especially after 14 times. From the results, electronic nose could differentiate the degree of quality deterioration of the repeated deep-frying oils.
