alartin/nirs-protein-prediction

We present here a 1D convolutional neural network model to predict grain protein content using spectroscopic data of multiple cereals

Estimating protein content in multiple grain cereals using NIRS and machine learning

This project is a part of the Avisa Project at ICRISAT.

-- Project Status: [Active]

Objective

The purpose of this project is determine the protein content from multiple grain cereals using near-infrared spectroscopy and machine learning/deep learning algorithms. Calibration models have been developed and will be deployed as rapid phenotyping tools for cereal breeders.

Project Description

• Measure protein content over 300 samples of peanut from wetlab analysis
• Scan the same samples using mobile and benchtop NIR sensors to record spectroscopic absorbance covering more than 1000 bands
• Preprocess the data (filtering, derivating, smoothing, etc)
• Develop ML/DL model architecture
• Train the model
• Make predictions
• Deploy the model

Needs of this project

• frontend development for deployment
• data exploration/descriptive statistics
• data processing/cleaning
• statistical modeling
• writeup/reporting
• etc. (be as specific as possible)

Getting Started

1. Clone this repo (for help see this tutorial).

2. Raw Data is being kept here within this repo.

   If using offline data mention that and how they may obtain the data from the froup)

3. Data processing/transformation scripts are being kept [here](Repo folder containing data processing scripts/notebooks)

4. etc...

If your project is well underway and setup is fairly complicated (ie. requires installation of many packages) create another "setup.md" file and link to it here

5. Follow setup [instructions](Link to file)
