“…In recent years, HSI has been widely used in nondestructive testing of fruit quality inside and outside, mainly including the external detection of fruit pest defects (Huang et al., 2013), chilling damage (Cen et al., 2016), pesticide residues (Mohite et al., 2017), fungal detection (Pieczywek et al., 2018), hardness (Erkinbaev et al., 2019), and internal detection such as internal defect (Fan et al., 2017), contents of soluble solids (Tian et al., 2019), moisture (Xu et al., 2019), and phenolic substances (Zhang et al., 2017), titratable acidity (Teerachaichayut & Ho, 2017), and pH value (Li et al., 2018). However, to our knowledge, few studies have been reported on determining the change of sugar content in lingwu jujube during storage by NIR hyperspectral imaging.…”
