fresh and matured beef (1)

This paper illustrates two approaches to classify between, fresh and previously frozen, and in a novel manner matured and matured previously frozen, as well as fresh and matured beef using the 500–1010 nm waveband, captured using hyperspectral imaging, and CIELAB (colour space) measurements.The results show successful classification based upon CIELAB between 1) fresh and previously frozen beef, and 2) fresh and matured beef, and also with a successful classification between matured and matured previously frozen beef using the entire spectral range. This method is rapid and non-destructive, and would be a very useful on-site screening method.
