Classification of Cabernet Sauvignon from Two Different Countries in South America by Chemical Compounds and Support Vector Machines

摘要

A simple approach is proposed for the classification of Cabernet Sauvignon wines from two different countries in South America (Brazil and Chile). The strategy combines the wines' functionality, designed as antioxidant activity (DPPH and ORAC), total polyphenols (TP), total anthocyanins (TA), and color, with a data mining technique known as support vector machines (SVM). The original dataset has 16 wine samples from Brazil and 113 from Chile. Algorithms were used to balance the dataset. Using resampling algorithms, we extended the Brazilian wines to 32 samples and reduced the Chilean wines to 32. With the proposed methodology, it was possible to classify the origin of the wine with an accuracy of 89% when using the 20 original elements. An accuracy of 83% was found using only 5 elements (L, DPPH, delph-3-acetylglu, peon-3-(coum)glu, and pet-3-acetylglu). Our methodology can be used for origin certification of other wines.
