Description

Kusumiyati Kusumiyati and colleagues combine light scanning with machine learning to judge mango quality without cutting the fruit in a 2026 study. Near-infrared spectra were collected from one hundred thirty-six intact mangoes and corrected before modeling. Five regression methods, from a traditional linear approach to boosted trees and a neural network, were tuned to predict total acidity and vitamin C content.

Nonlinear models clearly beat the traditional method, with the neural network reaching the highest accuracy on both measures. Performance scores indicated the predictions were strong enough for practical sorting use. The authors present the combined method as a fast, non-destructive option for quality control, supply chain decisions, and breeding programs that need reliable measures of fruit chemistry.
