“…In this paper, these two problems of `sensors long term drift' and `delayed response' are solved simultaneously to propose a robust and fast electronic nose system, with following merits: (i) only
initial transient state features are used in the proposed system without waiting for the sensors to reach a steady state, (ii) a modified boxplot approach is used to handle noisy/drifted
data points as a
preprocessing step before the classification setup, (iii) a heuristic tree classification approach with optimized transient features is proposed, (iv) the proposed approach only relies on adapted ML methods contrary to the traditional approaches like system recalibration or sensors replacement for handling sensors drift, and (v) the proposed ML model does not require any target domain
data and uses only the source domain
data for learning the classifier, opposed to the other ML solutions available in the existing literature. …”
