A Multispectral Framework for the Detection of Calcium Carbide-Induced Ripening and Shelf-Life Estimation in Climacteric Fruits

arXiv:2608. 13073v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Significant health risks are associated with the illegal, yet commonly practiced use of industrial-grade Calcium Carbide (CaC2) for ripening climacteric fruits like mango and banana, which leaves behind trace residues of arsenic and phosphorus.

Decision Tree and K-Means Analysis of Raman Spectra for Edible Oils: A Physics-Informed AI Approach

The paper presents a Raman spectroscopy and machine‑learning framework that uses t‑SNE, K‑means, Decision Trees, and NNLS‑based spectral decomposition to authenticate edible oils. In pure oils, Decision Trees achieved 100% accuracy using only four Raman variables out of 1866 features, while in matrix‑containing samples, NNLS‑based PI‑AI improved classification to about 85–86% with only four to five key variables. The approach yields highly compact, interpretable spectral representations that enable accurate oil identification with minimal data footprint.
