A total 206 samples of green, yellow, white, black, and Oolong teas were utilized to acquire hyperspectral imaging, and five tea categories were identified based on visible and near-infrared (NIR) hyperspectral imaging, combined with classification pattern recognition. The characteristic spectra were extracted from the region of interest (ROI), and the standard normal variate (SNV) method was preprocessed to reduce background noise. Four dominant wavelengths (589, 635, 670, and 783 nm) were selected by principal component analysis (PCA) as spectral features. Textural features were extracted by the Grey-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) from images at selected dominant wavelengths. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA), library support vector machine (Lib-SVM), and extreme learning machine (ELM) classification models were established based on full spectra, spectral features, textural features, and data fusion, respectively. Lib-SVM was the best model with the input data fusion, and the correct classification rate (CCR) achieved 98.39%. The results implied that visible and NIR hyperspectral imaging combined with Lib-SVM has the capability of rapidly and non-destructively classifying tea categories. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
