Concentration-Emission Matrix (CEM) Spectroscopy Combined with GA-SVM: An Analytical Method to Recognize Oil Species...

The establishment and development of a set of methods of oil accurate recognition in a different environment are of great significance to the effective management of oil spill pollution. In this work, the concentration-emission matrix (CEM) is formed by introducing the concentration dimension. The principal component analysis (PCA) is applied to extract the spectral feature. The classification methods, such as Probabilistic Neural Networks (PNNs) and Genic Algorithm optimization Support Vector Machine (SVM) parameters (GA-SVM), are used for oil identification and the recognition accuracies of the two classification methods are compared. The results show that the GA-SVM combined with PCA has the highest recognition accuracy for different oils. The proposed approach has great potential in rapid and accurate oil source identification.
