What is the electronic nose

Human mimic nose

ELECTRONIC NOSE
Conventional Olfactory laboratory relies on human nose

But human nose get tired with more samples.

ELECTRONIC NOSE
How electronic nose works:

Scheme of the human olfactory system.

Schematics of an electronic nose.

ELECTRONIC NOSE
Electronic nose system :
Types of transducer sensor - Quartz crystal Micro Balances (QMB)
- Surface Acoustic Wave Sensors (SAW) - Metal Oxide Semiconductor Sensors (MOS)** - Metal Oxide Field Effect Transistors (MOSFET) - Conducting Organic Polymers (COP)

Pattern Classify

Data analysis : Pattern Classification

Statistical method - Principal component analysis (PCA) - Partial least-square (PLS) - Principal component regression (PCR) - Cluster analysis (CA) and etc. Biological non-parametric methodologies artificial neural network, ANNS) - Multi-layer perception (MLP) - Self-organizing map (SOM) - Neural fuzzy system (NFS) and etc.

PRINCIPAL COMPONENT ANALYSIS
Aim: lower dimensional representation and visualization of the data in terms of scores on (uncorrelated) principal component > score plot Measurement on p (correlated) variances on n objects/ individuals/ experimental units Choice to be made: -covariance or correlation matrix (raw or standardized data) -the number of PCs to be used

ELECTRONIC NOSE
Data acquisitions:
Data transfer can be used -Serial port -Parallel port -Infrared transfer (iR) -Bluetooth -Wi-Fi

And to be collected by PC
