Three different sample sets containing healthy and infected oilseed rape leaves were acquired under different imaging acquisition parameters. Four discriminant models were built using full spectra, including partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), support vector machine (SVM), soft independent modeling of class analogies (SIMCA), and k-nearest neighbors (KNN). PLS-DA and SVM models were also built with the optimal wavelengths selected by principal component analysis (PCA) loadings, second derivative spectra, competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), and successive projections algorithm (SPA). The optimal wavelengths selected for each sample set by different methods were different; however, the optimal wavelengths selected by PCA loadings and second derivative spectra showed similarity between different sample sets. Direct standardization (DS) was successfully applied to reduce spectral differences among different sample sets. Overall, the results demonstrated that using hyperspectral imaging with chemometrics for plant disease detection can be efficient and will also help in the selection of optimal variable selection, machine learning, and calibration transfer methods for fast and accurate plant disease detection.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s18061764","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,6,1]],"date-time":"2018-06-01T03:02:50Z","timestamp":1527822170000},"page":"1764","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":34,"title":["Detection of Sclerotinia Stem Rot on Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L.)
