Digital image technology based on PCA and SVM for detection and recognition of foreign bodies in lyophilized powder.

BACKGROUND

Digital image technology has made great progress in the field of foreign body detection and classification, which is of great help to drug purity extraction and impurity analysis and classification.

OBJECTIVE

The detection and classification of foreign bodies in lyophilized powder are important. The method which can obtain a higher accuracy of recognition needs to be proposed.

METHODS

We used digital image technology to detect and classify foreign bodies in lyophilized powder, and studied the process of image preprocessing, median filtering, Wiener filtering and average filtering balance to better detect and classify foreign bodies in lyophilized powder.

RESULTS

Through industrial small sample data simulation, test results show that in the process of image preprocessing, 3 × 3 median filtering is best. In the aspect of foreign body recognition, the recognition based on principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machine (SVM) algorithm and the recognition based on PCA and Third-Nearest Neighbor classification algorithm are compared and results show that the PCA+SVM algorithm is better.

CONCLUSION

We demonstrated that integrating PCA and SVM to classify foreign bodies in lyophilized powder. Our proposed method is effective for the prediction of essential proteins.
