Summary
Well-trained human experts can undoubtedly find the differences between whiskies, but it is still not an easy job for most consumers. For whisky authentication to become a feasible option for consumers, a rapid and simple on-site authenticity assessment solution, or an electronic nose (e-nose), has been developed. This talk will introduce a new e-nose prototype (NOS.E) developed by the NOS.E team to identify differences between whiskies. The discussion will cover both hardware design and classification algorithm development. It will also discuss the plan to improve the performance of the proposed solution, e.g., a portable carrier gas unit will be introduced in the NOS.E system to isolate the background odors coming from the environmental context.
