Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy coupled with machine learning as a tool for olive oil authenticity and geographic discrimination

Abstract Olive oil is a basic element of the Mediterranean diet and a key product for the economies of the Mediterranean countries. Thus, there is an added incentive in the olive oil business for fraud through practices like adulteration and mislabeling. In the present work, Laser Induced Breakdown...
