Applying singular value decomposition technique for quantifying the insects in c

Insect infestation in rice stock is a significant issue in rice exporting business, resulting in the loss of product quality, nutrient as well as the economic losses. However, detecting the insect contamination with the traditional sorting techniques were destructive, inaccurate, time consuming and unable to detect the internal insect infestation. This study used near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy for obtaining the absorbent spectra from the insect contamination in two kinds of rice samples, Mille
