Four different freezing\/thawing conditions (the critical temperatures, numbers of cycles, holding time and cooling rates) were set in this experiment. Four different pretreatment methods were used: multivariate scattering correction (MSC), standard normal variate (SNV), Savitzky-Golay standard normal variate (S-G-SNV) and Savitzky-Golay multiplicative scattering correction (S-G-MSC). Combined with competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS) to identify characteristic wavelengths, firmness prediction models of Nanguo pears under different freezing\/thawing conditions were established by partial least squares (PLS) regression. The performance of the firmness model was analyzed quantitatively by the correlation coefficient (R), the root mean square error of calibration (RMSEC), the root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) and the root mean square error of cross validation (RMSECV). The results showed that the MSC-PLS model has the highest accuracy at different cooling rates and holding times; the correlation coefficients of the calibration set (Rc) were 0.899 and 0.927, respectively, and the correlation coefficients of the validation set (Rp) were 0.911 and 0.948, respectively. The accuracy of the SNV-PLS model was the highest at different numbers of cycles, and the Rc and the Rp were 0.861 and 0.848, respectively. The RMSEC was 65.189, and the RMSEP was 65.404. The accuracy of the S-G-SNV-PLS model was the highest at different critical temperatures, with Rc and Rp values of 0.854 and 0.819, respectively, and RMSEC and RMSEP values of 74.567 and 79.158, respectively.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s19143124","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,16]],"date-time":"2019-07-16T02:23:16Z","timestamp":1563243796000},"page":"3124","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Hyperspectral Imaging for the Nondestructive Quality Assessment of the Firmness of Nanguo Pears Under Different Freezing\/Thawing Conditions"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Zhe","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Refrigeration Technology, Tianjin University of Commerce, Tianjin 300134, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huiqing","family":"Shang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Refrigeration Technology, Tianjin University of Commerce, Tianjin 300134, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huaiwen","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Refrigeration Technology, Tianjin University of Commerce, Tianjin 300134, China"},{"name":"School of Mechanical Engineering, Tianjin University of Commerce, Tianjin 300134, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qiumei","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Refrigeration Technology, Tianjin University of Commerce, Tianjin 300134, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Susu","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Refrigeration Technology, Tianjin University of Commerce, Tianjin 300134, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qiaoyan","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Refrigeration Technology, Tianjin University of Commerce, Tianjin 300134, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jinjin","family":"Tian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tianjin Key Laboratory of Refrigeration Technology, Tianjin University of Commerce, Tianjin 300134, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"94","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijrefrig.2018.11.045","article-title":"Effect of supercooling accompanying the freezing process on ice crystals and the quality of frozen strawberry tissue","volume":"99","author":"Kobayashi","year":"2019","journal-title":"Int.
