Off-flavors can have significant impacts on the quality of salmonid products. This study investigated the possibility of comprehensive off-flavor profiling considering both olfactory and taste sensory perspectives by combining near-infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) and machine/deep learning. Four feature extraction algorithms were employed for the extraction and interpretation of spectral fingerprint information regarding off-flavor-related compounds. Classification models, including the partial least squares discriminant analysis, least-squares support vector machine, extreme learning machine, and one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1DCNN) were constructed using the full wavelengths and selected spectral features for the identification of off-flavor salmonids. The 1DCNN achieved the highest discrimination accuracy with full and selected wavelengths (i.e., 91.11 and 86.39 %, respectively). Furthermore, the prediction and visualization of off-flavor-related compounds were achieved with acceptable performances (R2 > 0.6) for practical applications. These results indicate the potential of NIR-HSI for the off-flavor profiling of salmonid muscle samples for producers and researchers.
