“…A few investigations have considered the drying characteristics estimation using machine learning approaches including for pineapple cubes (Meerasri & Sothornvit, 2022), apple slices (Sağlam & Çetin, 2022), pomelo fruit (Kırbaş et al, 2019), mushroom (Tarafdar et al, 2019), cocoyam slices (Onu et al, 2022), apricot slices (Satorabi et al, 2021), orange slices (Çetin, 2022a), orange‐fleshed sweet potato (Okonkwo et al, 2022), banana (Trivedi et al, 2023), cantaloupe (Zadhossein et al, 2023). In addition, there are rare discrimination research about drying of agriculture product in the past studies such as dried strawberry (Przybył et al, 2020), freeze‐dried beetroot (Ropelewska & Wrzodak, 2022), dried tarhana (Kurtulmuş et al, 2014), and dried garlic (Makarichian et al, 2021). These studies disclose that there are limited available research about the modeling machine learning based of drying parameters particularly moisture content and moisture ratio estimation of apricot.…”
