Description

紙に付着したオイルの種類を特定する方法How to identify the type of oil on paper
 本発明は、紙に付着したオイルの種類を特定する方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for identifying the type of oil adhering to paper.
 従来、シガレットの巻紙に付着したオイルシミにおけるオイルの種類の特定は、ガスクロマトグラフを用いた分析法によって実施されている。また、シガレットの製造現場においては、一次スクリーニング方法としての蛍光顕微鏡を用いた観察によって、巻紙に付着した機械オイルと天然オイルとの判別が行われている。 Conventionally, the identification of the type of oil in the oil stain adhering to the cigarette paper has been carried out by an analysis method using a gas chromatograph. Moreover, in the cigarette manufacturing field, the mechanical oil adhering to the wrapping paper and the natural oil are discriminated by observation using a fluorescence microscope as a primary screening method.
 油種識別方法としては、例えば、特許文献1において、識別対象の油であるサンプルに近赤外光を照射し、近赤外光の特定波長の吸光度を測定し、これにより得られたスペクトルを用いて3つの識別ステップを経ることによって、サンプルの油種をレギュラーガソリン、ハイオクタンガソリン、軽油および灯油の何れであるかを識別する方法が開示されている。 As an oil type identification method, for example, in Patent Document 1, near infrared light is irradiated to a sample, which is an oil to be identified, and the absorbance at a specific wavelength of the near infrared light is measured. A method of discriminating whether a sample oil type is regular gasoline, high-octane gasoline, light oil or kerosene by using three identification steps is disclosed.
日本国公開特許公報「特開2008-032694号公報(2008年2月14日公開)」Japanese Patent Publication “JP 2008-032694 A (published February 14, 2008)”
 ガスクロマトグラフを用いて、紙に付着したオイルの種類を特定する場合、正確な特定が可能ではあるが、実施のために特別な設備および熟練技術を必要とする問題点があり、また、特定するまでに時間がかかるという問題点もある。そして、巻紙に付着したオイルを蛍光顕微鏡によって判別する方法においては、機械オイルの製造技術の向上により、機械オイルと天然オイルとの判別は困難となってきている。 When using a gas chromatograph to identify the type of oil that has adhered to paper, it is possible to identify it accurately, but there are problems that require special equipment and skilled skills for implementation. Another problem is that it takes time. And in the method of discriminating oil adhering to the wrapping paper with a fluorescence microscope, it is difficult to discriminate between machine oil and natural oil due to the improvement of manufacturing technology of machine oil.
 また、特許文献1に記載の方法は、ガソリン類の種別を識別するための方法であり、また、油そのものに近赤外光を照射する方法であるため、シガレットの巻紙に付着したオイルを機械オイルおよび天然オイルの何れであるかを判別することはできない。 The method described in Patent Document 1 is a method for identifying the type of gasoline, and is a method for irradiating the oil itself with near-infrared light, so that the oil attached to the cigarette paper is mechanically removed.

 (対象データ取得工程)

(Target data acquisition process)
In the specifying method of the present invention, near-infrared spectrum data of the oil is acquired by irradiating near-infrared rays to the oil attached to the paper, which is the object to be specified, in the target data acquiring step. Specific target oils include industrially used oils and oils used for research. Specific examples of specific target oils include vegetable oils such as olive oil, and mineral oils such as synthetic hydrocarbon oils, inorganic oils, ester oils, paraffins, alicyclic hydrocarbon oils, and vegetable oil oils. Can be mentioned. The paper to which the oil is attached (target paper) may be paper of a type such as paper used industrially, paper used for research. Specific examples of the target paper include cigarette wrapping paper, cigarette chip paper, and cigarette package paper.
 近赤外線スペクトルデータを取得するための手段としては分光測定機器等の近赤外線スペクトル測定機器が挙げられ、例えば、当該技術分野において一般的に用いられる分光測定機器を使用することができる。近赤外線スペクトルデータを取得する利用する際には、例えば、400nm~2500nmの範囲の任意の波長領域を照射することができ、一例において、近赤外線スペクトルデータに利用する近赤外線の波長領域は、1000nm~2500nmの波長であることが好ましく、1000nm~2450nmの波長であることがより好ましい。 As a means for acquiring near infrared spectrum data, a near infrared spectrum measuring instrument such as a spectroscopic measuring instrument can be used. For example, a spectrometric instrument generally used in the technical field can be used. When using to obtain near infrared spectrum data, for example, an arbitrary wavelength region in the range of 400 nm to 2500 nm can be irradiated. In one example, the near infrared wavelength region used for near infrared spectrum data is 1000 nm. A wavelength of ˜2500 nm is preferable, and a wavelength of 1000 nm-2450 nm is more preferable.
 取得した近赤外スペクトルデータは、例えば、近赤外線スペクトル測定機器またはこれに接続されたコンピュータに保存されてもよい。 The acquired near-infrared spectrum data may be stored in, for example, a near-infrared spectrum measuring device or a computer connected thereto.
 (ライブラリー準備工程)
 本発明の特定方法では、ライブラリー準備工程において、参照用スペクトルデータである、複数種のサンプルオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータを含むライブラリーを準備する。ライブラリー準備工程は、オイル特定工程よりも前に行われるが、対象データ取得工程よりも前に行ってもよいし、対象データ取得工程よりも後に行ってもよい。
(Library preparation process)
In the specific method of the present invention, a library including near-infrared spectrum data of a plurality of types of sample oil, which is reference spectrum data, is prepared in the library preparation step. The library preparation step is performed before the oil identification step, but may be performed before the target data acquisition step or may be performed after the target data acquisition step.
 ライブラリー準備工程において、近赤外スペクトルデータは、既に測定されたスペクトルデータである。ライブラリー準備工程は、例えば、コンピュータ上で行うことができる。ライブラリー準備工程では、例えば、参照用スペクトルデータを近赤外線スペクトル測定機器からコンピュータへ取り込ませること、コンピュータまたは当該コンピュータに接続された機器に保存されている参照用スペクトルデータを所定のフォルダに収めること、インターネット回線等を介して参照用スペクトルデータを取得すること、参照用スペクトルデータを解析プログラム等に取り込み可能な状態とすること、参照用スペクトルデータを解析プログラム等に取り込ませること、参照用スペクトルデータを参照用スペクトルデータとして解析プログラム等に認識させること、および/または任意の参照用スペクトルデータを選択できる状態にすること等が行われ得る。 In the library preparation process, the near-infrared spectrum data is already measured spectrum data. The library preparation step can be performed on a computer, for example. In the library preparation process, for example, the reference spectrum data is taken into the computer from the near-infrared spectrum measurement device, and the reference spectrum data stored in the computer or the device connected to the computer is stored in a predetermined folder. , Obtaining reference spectrum data via an internet line, etc., making reference spectrum data ready to be imported into an analysis program, etc., allowing reference spectrum data to be taken into an analysis program, etc., reference spectrum data Can be recognized by the analysis program or the like as reference spectrum data, and / or any reference spectrum data can be selected.
 サンプルオイルとしては、工業的に用いられるオイル、および研究用に用いられるオイル等が挙げられる。特定対象のオイルの具体的な一例としては、オリーブオイル等の植物オイル、ならびに、合成炭化水素油、無機系オイル、エステルオイル、パラフィン、脂環式炭化水素油および植物油系オイル等のミネラルオイルが挙げられる。サンプルオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータは、紙に付着した状態で取得されたサンプルオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータであることが好ましい。当該紙は、工業的に用いられる紙、研究用に用いられる紙等の種類の紙であり得る。対象の紙の具体的な一例としては、シガレットの巻紙、シガレットのチップペーパー、およびシガレットのパッケージ用紙等が挙げられる。当該紙は、対象の紙と同じ種類の紙であることが好ましい。紙の種類が同じである場合には、紙に由来するスペクトルへの影響を抑えることができるため、より確実に特定対象のオイルの種類を特定することができる。なお、「紙の種類」とは、紙の使用目的の同異(例えば、シガレットの巻紙とシガレットのチップペーパー)だけでなく、素材や仕様の同異(例えば、亜麻製のシガレットの巻紙と木材製のシガレットの巻紙)等も包含し得る。 Sample oil includes industrially used oil and oil used for research. Specific examples of specific target oils include vegetable oils such as olive oil, and mineral oils such as synthetic hydrocarbon oils, inorganic oils, ester oils, paraffins, alicyclic hydrocarbon oils, and vegetable oil oils. Can be mentioned. It is preferable that the near-infrared spectrum data of sample oil is the near-infrared spectrum data of sample oil acquired in the state adhering to paper. The paper may be a type of paper such as paper used industrially, paper used for research. Specific examples of the target paper include cigarette wrapping paper, cigarette chip paper, and cigarette package paper. The paper is preferably the same type of paper as the target paper. When the types of paper are the same, the influence on the spectrum derived from the paper can be suppressed, so that the type of oil to be specified can be specified more reliably. Note that “paper type” means not only the difference in the intended use of paper (for example, cigarette paper and cigarette chip paper), but also the difference in materials and specifications (for example, flax cigarette paper and wood) Cigarette paper made of cigarettes) and the like.
 複数種のサンプルオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータは、それぞれ、後述する参照用データ取得工程において取得されたものであってもよいし、それ以外の手段により前もって取得されたものであってもよい。なお、本明細書において、ライブラリー準備工程における「複数種のサンプルオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータ」は、オイル特定工程において特定対象のオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータと照合され得るため、「参照用スペクトルデータ」ともいう。 The near-infrared spectrum data of a plurality of types of sample oils may be acquired in a reference data acquisition step described later, or may be acquired in advance by other means. In the present specification, the “near infrared spectrum data of plural types of sample oil” in the library preparation process can be collated with the near infrared spectrum data of the oil to be identified in the oil identification process. Also referred to as “spectral data”.
 ライブラリーは、参照用スペクトルデータを含んでいる。ライブラリーは、参照用スペクトルデータのみからなってもよいし、参照用スペクトルデータとそれ以外のデータとからなってもよい。それ以外のデータとしては、例えば、オイル以外の物質(例えば、水、香料、メンソール等)の近赤外スペクトルデータ、および何も付着していない紙の近赤外スペクトルデータ等が挙げられる。一例において、ライブラリーは、オリーブオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータ、およびオリーブオイル以外のオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータを含む。当該オリーブオイル以外のオイルとしては、工業的に用いられるオイル、研究用に用いられるオイル等の、オリーブ以外のオイルが挙げられる。当該オリーブ以外のオイルは、合成炭化水素油、無機系オイル、エステルオイル、パラフィン、脂環式炭化水素油および植物油系オイル等のミネラルオイルであり得る。 The library contains reference spectrum data. The library may consist only of reference spectral data, or may consist of reference spectral data and other data. Examples of other data include near infrared spectrum data of substances other than oil (for example, water, fragrance, menthol, etc.), and near infrared spectrum data of paper to which nothing is attached. In one example, the library includes near-infrared spectral data for olive oil and near-infrared spectral data for oils other than olive oil. Examples of oils other than the olive oil include oils other than olives such as industrially used oils and oils used for research. The oil other than olive can be mineral oil such as synthetic hydrocarbon oil, inorganic oil, ester oil, paraffin, alicyclic hydrocarbon oil, and vegetable oil oil.
 また、参照用スペクトルデータである近赤外スペクトルデータは、複数種のサンプルオイルについてのデータである。1種類のサンプルオイルについてのスペクトルデータは1つであってもよいし、複数であってもよい。1種類のサンプルオイルについて、複数(例えば200程度)のサンプルを取得して参照用スペクトルデータとした場合、判別時の判別率が向上する。また、ある1種類のサンプルオイルについて、1種類の紙に付着させて取得されたスペクトルデータのみが参照用スペクトルデータとして含まれていてもよいし、複数種の紙に付着させて取得された各スペクトルデータが参照用スペクトルデータとして含まれていてもよい。ある1種類のサンプルオイルについて複数種の紙に付着させて取得された各スペクトルデータが参照用スペクトルデータとして含まれている場合、各スペクトルデータは、サンプルオイルの種類とのみ関連付けられていてもよいし、サンプルオイルの種類および紙の種類の両方に関連付けられていてもよい。オイルの種類とのみ関連付けられている場合には、複数種の各紙におけるスペクトルデータは、1つの、当該オイルについてのスペクトルデータ群として含まれ得る。この場合、後述するオイル特定工程において、各スペクトルデータは一群のものとして照合され得る。 Also, the near-infrared spectrum data, which is reference spectrum data, is data for a plurality of types of sample oil. There may be one or more spectral data for one type of sample oil. When a plurality of (for example, about 200) samples are acquired and used as reference spectrum data for one type of sample oil, the discrimination rate at the time of discrimination is improved. Further, only one spectrum data acquired by attaching to one type of paper for one type of sample oil may be included as reference spectrum data, or each acquired by attaching to a plurality of types of paper. Spectral data may be included as reference spectral data. When each spectrum data acquired by attaching to a plurality of types of paper for one type of sample oil is included as reference spectrum data, each spectrum data may be associated only with the type of sample oil. It may be associated with both the sample oil type and the paper type. In the case of being associated only with the type of oil, the spectrum data for each of the plurality of types of paper can be included as one spectral data group for the oil. In this case, each spectrum data can be collated as a group in the oil specifying step described later.
 このように、複数種の各紙におけるスペクトルデータを、当該オイルについての1つのスペクトルデータ群である参照用スペクトルデータとしてライブラリーを作成すると、判別時に測定する紙の種類の影響を受けにくく、汎用性の高いライブラリーを作成することができる。 In this way, if the library is created using the spectrum data for each of a plurality of types of paper as reference spectrum data, which is one spectral data group for the oil, it is less affected by the type of paper measured at the time of discrimination, and is versatile. A high library can be created.
 また、参照用スペクトルデータを紙の種類ごとに一群のものとして用意して、ライブラリーを作成してもよい。この場合、オイル特定工程において、特定対象の紙と同一種類の紙についての参照用スペクトルデータと照合することができるため、より迅速かつ精度よく特定対象のオイルの種類を特定し得る。 Also, a library may be created by preparing reference spectrum data as a group for each paper type. In this case, since the reference spectral data for the same type of paper as the paper to be specified can be collated in the oil specifying step, the type of oil to be specified can be specified more quickly and accurately.
 また、ある1種類のサンプルオイルとある1種類の紙との組み合わせについて、1つのスペクトルデータが参照用スペクトルデータとして含まれていてもよいし、複数のスペクトルデータが参照用スペクトルデータとして含まれていてもよい。複数のスペクトルデータが参照用スペクトルデータとして含まれている場合、各スペクトルデータは、1つの、当該オイルと当該紙との組み合わせについてのスペクトルデータ群として含まれ得る。この場合、後述するオイル特定工程において、各スペクトルデータは一群のものとして照合され得る。複数のスペクトルデータが参照用スペクトルデータとして含まれている場合、測定誤差を抑えることができるため、オイル特定工程における特定の精度を高めることができる。 Further, for a combination of one kind of sample oil and one kind of paper, one spectrum data may be included as reference spectrum data, or a plurality of spectrum data is included as reference spectrum data. May be. When a plurality of spectrum data are included as the reference spectrum data, each spectrum data can be included as a spectrum data group for one combination of the oil and the paper. In this case, each spectrum data can be collated as a group in the oil specifying step described later. When a plurality of spectrum data are included as reference spectrum data, measurement errors can be suppressed, and thus the specific accuracy in the oil specifying step can be increased.
 また、参照用スペクトルデータは、測定の生データであってもよいし、任意の処理がなされたデータであってもよい。そのような処理としては、例えば、一次微分、二次微分、三次微分、四次微分、ベースライン補正、標準正規変量(Standard Normal Variate)処理等が挙げられ、参照用スペクトルデータは、このような処理がなされた後のスペクトルデータであり得る。このような処理によって、照合における計算処理が簡単になり、より迅速に特定対象のオイルの種類を特定し得る。あるいは、サンプルオイル以外の物質による影響等の低減された参照用スペクトルデータを取得することができ、より高い精度で特定対象のオイルの種類を特定し得る。 Further, the reference spectrum data may be raw measurement data or data that has been subjected to arbitrary processing. Examples of such processing include first-order differentiation, second-order differentiation, third-order differentiation, fourth-order differentiation, baseline correction, standard normal variate (Standard Normal Variate) processing, etc. It may be spectral data after processing. Such a process simplifies the calculation process in the collation and can more quickly identify the type of oil to be identified. Alternatively, it is possible to acquire reference spectrum data in which the influence of a substance other than the sample oil is reduced, and the type of oil to be identified can be identified with higher accuracy.
 (オイル特定工程)
 本発明の特定方法では、オイル特定工程において、対象データ取得工程で取得した特定対象のオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータを、ライブラリー準備工程で準備したライブラリー中の複数の参照用スペクトルデータと照合することによって、特定対象のオイルの種類を特定する。
(Oil identification process)
In the identification method of the present invention, in the oil identification step, the near-infrared spectrum data of the specific target oil acquired in the target data acquisition step is collated with a plurality of reference spectrum data in the library prepared in the library preparation step. By doing so, the type of oil to be identified is identified.
 オイル特定工程において照合される参照用スペクトルデータは、ライブラリー中の全ての参照用スペクトルデータであってもよいし、一部の参照用スペクトルデータであってもよい。 The reference spectral data to be collated in the oil specifying step may be all reference spectral data in the library or a part of the reference spectral data.
 照合する方法としては、例えば、スペクトルどうしを比較する際に従来用いられている方法が挙げられる。照合は、例えば、コンピュータ上で、スペクトル照合用のソフトウエア(解析プログラム)を用いて行うことができる。照合する方法の例としては、波長による相関法、波長による最大距離法、主成分空間におけるマハラノビス距離、または成分空間における残差分散等、を用いて照合する方法がある。 As a method of collating, for example, a method conventionally used when comparing spectra can be cited. The collation can be performed using, for example, a spectrum collation software (analysis program) on a computer. As an example of the collation method, there is a collation method using a correlation method by wavelength, a maximum distance method by wavelength, a Mahalanobis distance in the principal component space, a residual variance in the component space, or the like.
 また、照合する際に、スペクトルデータに対し任意の処理を行ってもよい。そのような処理としては、例えば、一次微分、二次微分、三次微分、四次微分、ベースライン補正、標準正規変量(Standard Normal Variate)処理等が挙げられる。 In addition, arbitrary processing may be performed on the spectrum data when collating. Examples of such processing include first-order differentiation, second-order differentiation, third-order differentiation, fourth-order differentiation, baseline correction, and standard normal variable (Standard (Variate) processing.
 また、照合した結果として、特定対象のオイルのスペクトルデータと参照用スペクトルデータとの類似の度合を、照合率(類似度)として数値化してもよい。そして、この照合率を、特定対象のオイルの種類を特定する際の基準として用いてもよい。すなわち、照合率が最も高い参照用スペクトルデータのサンプルオイルの種類を、特定対象のオイルの種類と同じであるとみなし、特定対象のオイルの種類を特定する。 Also, as a result of the collation, the degree of similarity between the spectrum data of the specific target oil and the reference spectrum data may be quantified as a collation rate (similarity). And you may use this collation rate as a reference | standard at the time of specifying the kind of oil of specification object. That is, the type of sample oil in the reference spectrum data having the highest matching rate is regarded as the same as the type of oil to be specified, and the type of oil to be specified is specified.
 また、照合率にしきい値を設けてもよい。例えば、特定対象のオイルのスペクトルデータと、それぞれのオイルの種類ごとの参照用スペクトルデータとを照合し、これの結果の各々の照合率のうちで、特定対象のオイルと最も類似していると判断された照合率を評価する場合、予めしきい値を設けておき、当該照合率が当該しきい値よりも低い場合は、本発明の方法による特定結果を、信頼性が低いものとして判断し、従来の他の特定方法を用いて、再度、特定対象のオイルの種類を特定する作業を行ってもよい。つまり、紙に付着した未判明のオイルが発生した場合に、本発明の特定方法を、最初の段階における特定方法として好適に用いることができる。 Also, a threshold value may be set for the verification rate. For example, the spectral data of the specific target oil and the reference spectral data for each type of oil are collated, and among the respective collation rates of these results, the most similar to the specific target oil When evaluating the verified collation rate, a threshold value is set in advance, and when the collation rate is lower than the threshold value, the specific result obtained by the method of the present invention is determined as having low reliability. The operation of specifying the type of oil to be specified may be performed again using another conventional specifying method. That is, when unidentified oil adhering to the paper is generated, the specifying method of the present invention can be suitably used as the specifying method in the first stage.
 1種類のサンプルオイルについて複数のスペクトルデータが上述のように1つのスペクトルデータ群として含まれている場合、各スペクトルデータは一群のものとして照合されてもよい。この場合、当該複数のスペクトルデータに対する照合結果は1つとなる。例えば、複数のスペクトルデータのそれぞれの照合率の平均をスペクトルデータ群の照合率として算出する、あるいは、当該複数のスペクトルデータを平均化した後にスペクトルデータと特定対象のオイルのスペクトルデータとを比較する等により行い得る。 When a plurality of spectrum data is included as one spectrum data group as described above for one kind of sample oil, each spectrum data may be collated as a group. In this case, there is one matching result for the plurality of spectrum data. For example, the average of the collation rates of a plurality of spectrum data is calculated as the collation rate of the spectrum data group, or the spectrum data is compared with the spectrum data of the oil to be identified after averaging the plurality of spectrum data. Etc.
 また、複数種のサンプルオイルのスペクトルデータを一群のものとして照合してもよい。例えば、オリーブオイルとそれ以外のオイルとの判別することが好ましい場合において、オリーブオイルのスペクトルデータ、およびオリーブオイル以外の複数種のサンプルオイルのスペクトルデータ群と照合し、特定対象のオイルの種類の特定結果として、オリーブオイルであるか、またはオリーブオイル以外のオイルであるとの特定がなされてもよい。 Also, spectral data of multiple types of sample oil may be collated as a group. For example, in the case where it is preferable to discriminate between olive oil and other oils, the spectral data of olive oil and the spectral data group of a plurality of sample oils other than olive oil are collated, As a specific result, it may be specified that the oil is olive oil or an oil other than olive oil.
 また、照合する際に、特定対象のオイルのスペクトルと全てのサンプルオイルのスペクトルとで差異のない波長領域については、照合の対象から外してもよい。これにより、オイルに由来すると考えられる波長のみを比較することができるため、特定の精度を高めることができる。 Also, when collating, wavelength regions that are not different between the spectrum of the specific target oil and the spectrum of all sample oils may be excluded from the target of collation. Thereby, since only the wavelength considered to originate in oil can be compared, specific accuracy can be raised.
 また、何も付着していない紙の近赤外スペクトルデータ、および/または、オイル以外の物質(例えば、水、香料、メンソール等)の近赤外スペクトルデータとも照合してもよい。これらの照合率がサンプルオイルよりも高い場合には、特定対象のオイルは、オイルではなく、オイル以外の物質であると特定され得る。 Also, it may be collated with near-infrared spectrum data of paper to which nothing is attached and / or near-infrared spectrum data of substances other than oil (for example, water, fragrance, menthol, etc.). When these verification rates are higher than the sample oil, the oil to be identified can be identified as a substance other than oil, not oil.
 上述の各々の工程を経る本発明の特定方法は、近赤外線分光法を用いているため、紙に付着したオイルの種類を、短時間で平易に特定することができるという効果を有する。また、当該方法は、既存の近赤外線スペクトル測定機器を用い得るため、専用施設および熟練技術を必要としないという利点を有する。 Since the identification method of the present invention through each of the above steps uses near-infrared spectroscopy, it has the effect that the type of oil adhering to the paper can be identified easily in a short time. Moreover, since the said method can use the existing near-infrared spectrum measuring instrument, it has the advantage that a dedicated facility and skill are not required.
 (データ選択工程)
 一実施形態において、本発明に係る特定方法は、対象の紙に接触した可能性のある各サンプルオイルについての参照用スペクトルデータを、ライブラリーから選択するデータ選択工程をさらに含み、オイル特定工程では、サンプルオイルについては、データ選択工程で選択された参照用スペクトルデータと照合する。データ選択工程は、ライブラリー準備工程よりも後に行われる。
(Data selection process)
In one embodiment, the identification method according to the present invention further includes a data selection step of selecting, from the library, reference spectral data for each sample oil that may have come into contact with the target paper. The sample oil is collated with the reference spectrum data selected in the data selection step. The data selection process is performed after the library preparation process.
 ここで、本実施形態における「対象の紙に接触した可能性のある各サンプルオイル」とは、例えば、対象の紙およびサンプルオイルと同種のオイルが、同一の特定の工場または研究所等の施設における、同一の特定の製造ラインまたは設備等で用いられており、対象の紙に接触した可能性が、他のサンプルオイルよりも高いと想定される複数種のサンプルオイルを意味する。なお、ここにおける特定の製造ラインの例としては、巻上機および包装機等が挙げられる。しかし、本発明において、「対象の紙に接触した可能性のあるサンプルオイル」は、これらの例に限定されるものではなく、上記可能性の判断は、いかなる条件において行ってもよいし、何を想定して行ってもよい。 Here, “each sample oil that may have come into contact with the target paper” in the present embodiment refers to, for example, the target paper and the same kind of oil as the sample oil, a facility such as the same specific factory or laboratory Means a plurality of types of sample oils that are used in the same specific production line or equipment, and that are likely to be in contact with the target paper as compared to other sample oils. Examples of the specific production line here include a hoisting machine and a packaging machine. However, in the present invention, the “sample oil that may have come into contact with the target paper” is not limited to these examples, and the determination of the above possibility may be made under any conditions. It may be performed assuming this.
 データ選択工程では、対象の紙と同一の種類の紙に付着した状態で取得されたサンプルオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータをライブラリーから選択することが好ましい。紙の種類が同じである場合には、紙に由来するスペクトルへの影響を抑えることができるため、より確実に特定対象のオイルの種類を特定することができる。 In the data selection step, it is preferable to select from the library the near-infrared spectrum data of the sample oil obtained in a state where it adheres to the same type of paper as the target paper. When the types of paper are the same, the influence on the spectrum derived from the paper can be suppressed, so that the type of oil to be specified can be specified more reliably.
 一例において、銘柄、巻上機および包装機で利用され得るオイルの参照用スペクトルデータを、それぞれ、銘柄、巻上機および包装機ごとに所定のフォルダに予め準備し、ライブラリーこれらのフォルダをとしてもよい。 In one example, reference spectral data for oils that can be used in brands, hoisting machines, and packaging machines are prepared in a predetermined folder for each brand, hoisting machine, and packaging machine, respectively. Also good.
 データ選択工程は、例えば、コンピュータ上で行うことができる。データ選択工程では、例えば、対象の紙に接触した可能性のある各サンプルオイルについての参照用スペクトルデータのみを、所定のフォルダに収めること、解析プログラム等に取り込み可能な状態とすること、解析プログラム等に取り込ませること、および/または照合すべき参照用スペクトルデータとして解析プログラム等に認識させること等が行われ得る。 The data selection process can be performed on a computer, for example. In the data selection step, for example, only reference spectral data for each sample oil that may have come into contact with the target paper is stored in a predetermined folder, is in a state that can be imported into an analysis program, etc. Or the like, and / or making the analysis program recognize the data as reference spectrum data to be verified.
 本実施形態において、サンプルオイルについては、データ選択工程でライブラリーから選択した、対象の紙に接触した可能性のある各サンプルオイルについての参照用スペクトルデータと、特定対象のオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータとを、上述のオイル特定工程において照合する。 In this embodiment, for sample oil, reference spectral data for each sample oil that may have come into contact with the target paper, selected from the library in the data selection step, and the near-infrared spectrum of the specific target oil The data is collated in the above-described oil specifying process.
 本実施形態における特定方法では、可能性のあるオイルの種類を限定することができるため、特定対象のオイルをより正確に特定する可能性が高くなる。また、オイル特定工程において照合するスペクトルデータの数が少なくなるため、より迅速に特定することができる。 In the identification method according to the present embodiment, since the types of possible oils can be limited, there is a high possibility that the target oil is identified more accurately. In addition, since the number of spectral data to be collated in the oil specifying step is reduced, it can be specified more quickly.
 (参照用データ取得工程)
 一実施形態において、本発明に係る特定方法は、ライブラリー準備工程に先立って、紙に付着したサンプルオイルに近赤外線を照射することによって、参照用スペクトルデータを取得する参照用データ取得工程をさらに含む。
(Reference data acquisition process)
In one embodiment, the specifying method according to the present invention further includes a reference data acquisition step of acquiring reference spectrum data by irradiating the sample oil attached to the paper with near infrared rays prior to the library preparation step. Including.
 参照用データ取得工程の具体的な例として、まず、複数種のサンプルオイルを、各々、複数の紙に付着させ、試料を作成する。サンプルオイルを紙に付着させる方法としては、紙における必要な部分に、必要なサンプルオイルの量を付着し得る方法であることが好ましい。具体的には、絵筆を用いてサンプルオイルを紙に付着させる方法、および、スポイトでサンプルオイルを吸入し、紙に垂らす方法等がある。当該紙およびサンプルオイルについては、ライブラリー準備工程で述べたとおりである。 As a specific example of the reference data acquisition process, first, a plurality of types of sample oils are attached to a plurality of papers, respectively, to prepare samples. The method for attaching the sample oil to the paper is preferably a method capable of attaching a necessary amount of the sample oil to a necessary portion of the paper. Specifically, there are a method of attaching sample oil to paper using a paint brush, a method of sucking sample oil with a dropper, and dropping it on paper. The paper and sample oil are as described in the library preparation step.
 近赤外線スペクトルデータの取得は、例えば、上述の対象データ取得工程と同様の方法を用いることができる。測定条件は同じにすることが好ましい。 Near infrared spectrum data can be acquired using, for example, a method similar to the above-described target data acquisition process. The measurement conditions are preferably the same.
 本実施形態において、近赤外線が照射される紙は、1種類のオイルに対して、1種類の紙でもよく、複数種類の紙であってもよい。1種類のオイルに対して、1種類の紙を用いる場合、付着させるそれぞれのサンプルオイルとの組み合わせが少ないため、より多くの試料からスペクトルデータを得ることができ、より照合に適した参照用スペクトルデータを取得することができる。また、複数種類の紙を用いる場合は、各々の紙の種類ごとに分類された参照用スペクトルデータを作成することができ、対象の紙と同一種類の紙に付着したサンプルオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータを用いて照合することによって、特定対象のオイルの種類の特定の精度を高めることができる。 In this embodiment, the paper irradiated with near infrared rays may be one type of paper or a plurality of types of paper for one type of oil. When one type of paper is used for one type of oil, there are few combinations with each sample oil to be attached, so spectrum data can be obtained from a larger number of samples, and a reference spectrum more suitable for collation Data can be acquired. In addition, when using multiple types of paper, it is possible to create reference spectral data classified for each type of paper, and the near-infrared spectrum of sample oil adhering to the same type of paper as the target paper By collating using data, the specific accuracy of the type of oil to be identified can be increased.
 また、本実施形態において、何も付着していない紙、および/または、オイル以外の物質に近赤外線を照射することによって、参照用スペクトルデータを取得してもよい。オイル以外の物質は紙に付着させることが好ましい。これにより得られた参照用スペクトルデータを用い、紙によるスペクトルへの影響を把握することによって、一部の波長領域を、照合対象の波長領域から除外することもできる。または、当該参照用スペクトルデータを用いることによって、オイル以外の物質を特定することもできる。 Further, in the present embodiment, reference spectral data may be acquired by irradiating near infrared rays to a paper and / or a substance other than oil. Substances other than oil are preferably attached to the paper. By using the reference spectrum data obtained in this way and grasping the influence of the paper on the spectrum, a part of the wavelength regions can be excluded from the wavelength regions to be verified. Alternatively, substances other than oil can be specified by using the reference spectrum data.
 なお、より照合に適した参照用スペクトルデータを得るために、参照用スペクトルデータを構成するスペクトルデータは、種々の条件において得られたデータであることが好ましい。例えば、同一の紙であって、かつ同一のオイルを用いた場合であっても、紙の模様、紙に付着したオイルまたは物質の形または向き等により、それぞれのスペクトル間で差異が生じ得るため、紙の向きを変える手段等により、種々の方向から近赤外線を紙に照射して、種々の条件のスペクトルデータを取得することが好ましい。 Note that, in order to obtain reference spectrum data more suitable for collation, the spectrum data constituting the reference spectrum data is preferably data obtained under various conditions. For example, even if the same paper is used and the same oil is used, there may be differences between the spectra depending on the pattern of the paper, the shape or orientation of the oil or substance attached to the paper, etc. It is preferable to obtain spectral data of various conditions by irradiating the near infrared rays on the paper from various directions by means of changing the direction of the paper.
 また、当該参照用スペクトルデータを構成するために必要なスペクトルの選別は、特定対象のオイルのスペクトルの特徴に従って、適宜、実施されてもよい。例えば、特定対象のオイルのスペクトルとサンプルオイルのスペクトルとで差異のない波長領域を削除すること等を実施し得る。また、特定のサンプルオイルの複数のスペクトルの間でばらつきが大きい場合、異常値(アウトライア)のしきい値を狭く設定することにより、照合に適当ではないスペクトルを除外してもよい。 Further, the selection of the spectrum necessary for constructing the reference spectrum data may be appropriately performed according to the characteristics of the spectrum of the oil to be specified. For example, it is possible to delete a wavelength region in which there is no difference between the spectrum of the target oil and the spectrum of the sample oil. In addition, when there is a large variation among a plurality of spectra of a specific sample oil, a spectrum that is not suitable for collation may be excluded by setting a threshold value of an abnormal value (outlier) narrow.
 参照用データ取得工程において取得した近赤外スペクトルデータは、例えば、近赤外線スペクトル測定機器またはこれに接続されたコンピュータに保存されてもよい。 The near-infrared spectrum data acquired in the reference data acquisition step may be stored in, for example, a near-infrared spectrum measuring device or a computer connected thereto.
 本実施形態において、ライブラリー準備工程に先立って、参照用データ取得工程を経ることにより、特定対象のオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータと照合するための、より多くの参照用スペクトルデータを取得できるため、特定対象のオイルと同一のオイルの参照用スペクトルデータを含んでいる可能性の高いライブラリーを作成でき、特定対象のオイルを正しく特定できる可能性がより高まる。 In the present embodiment, prior to the library preparation step, by passing through the reference data acquisition step, more reference spectrum data for collating with the near-infrared spectrum data of the specific target oil can be acquired. Thus, it is possible to create a library that is likely to contain reference spectral data of the same oil as the specific target oil, and the possibility of correctly specifying the specific target oil is further increased.
 (本発明の使用例)
 本発明の使用例としては、シガレットの巻紙に付着した未判明のオイルの特定が挙げられる。本使用例において、対象の紙はシガレットの巻紙であり、対象の紙に付着した特定対象のオイルは、シガレットの製造時において巻紙に付着したオイルである。
(Usage example of the present invention)
An example of the use of the present invention is to identify unidentified oil that has adhered to cigarette paper. In this usage example, the target paper is cigarette paper, and the specific target oil attached to the target paper is oil attached to the paper when the cigarette is manufactured.
 シガレットの製造過程においては、シガレットを切断するときに使用される切断器具にオリーブオイルが塗布されている。巻紙に付着したオイルが、当該オリーブオイルであれば製品品質には影響は小さいが、製品品質に少なからず影響を与える可能性のある他の種類のオイル(例えば、機械オイル)が付着している可能性もある。そのため、オリーブオイルと、それ以外の種類のオイルとを判別する必要性がある。 In the manufacturing process of cigarettes, olive oil is applied to a cutting tool used when cutting cigarettes. If the oil attached to the wrapping paper is the olive oil, the product quality will be small, but other types of oil (for example, machine oil) that may affect the product quality are attached. There is a possibility. Therefore, there is a need to distinguish between olive oil and other types of oil.
 以下に本発明の使用例として、あるシガレット製造工場においてシガレットの巻紙に付着したオイルを特定する方法を詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, as a use example of the present invention, a method for identifying oil attached to cigarette paper in a cigarette manufacturing factory will be described in detail.
 このシガレット製造工場では、以下のように、複数の製造ライン1~4において、互いに異なる銘柄のシガレットを製造している。製造ライン1~4では、1種類のオリーブオイルと3種類の機械オイル(ミネラルオイル)をそれぞれ使用しているが、オリーブオイルの種類および機械オイルの種類の組み合わせが異なっている。 In this cigarette manufacturing factory, different brands of cigarettes are manufactured in a plurality of production lines 1 to 4 as follows. Production lines 1 to 4 use one type of olive oil and three types of machine oil (mineral oil), but the combination of olive oil type and machine oil type is different.
  製造ライン1:A銘柄、オリーブオイルO1、機械オイルM1、M2、M3、巻紙a
  製造ライン2:B銘柄、オリーブオイルO2、機械オイルM1、M2、M7、巻紙b
  製造ライン3:C銘柄、オリーブオイルO2、機械オイルM2、M5、M6、巻紙c
  製造ライン4:D銘柄、オリーブオイルO3、機械オイルM4、M5、M7、巻紙d
 まず、事前に、製造ライン1~4で使用されている全てのオイルについての近赤外スペクトルデータを取得し(参照用データ取得工程)、これらの近赤外スペクトルデータを含むライブラリーを準備する(ライブラリー準備工程)。すなわち、サンプルオイルとしてオリーブオイルO1~O4および機械オイルM1~M7をそれぞれ任意のシガレットに付着させ、巻紙をシガレットから剥がし、紙に付着したそれぞれのサンプルオイルに近赤外線を照射することによって、近赤外スペクトルデータ(参照用スペクトルデータ)を取得する。また、別途、巻紙に何も付着していないシガレット(ブランク)、巻紙に水を付着させたシガレット、および巻紙にメンソールを付着させたシガレットを用意し、同様に近赤外スペクトルデータを取得してもよい。これらの近赤外スペクトルデータ(参照用スペクトルデータ、ブランク、水、およびメンソール)を、コンピュータ上に保存しておく。下記で説明するが、参照用データ取得工程を前もって実施することにより、未判明のオイルが付着した巻紙のシガレットが生じた場合、当該オイルの種類と同一である可能性が高いオイルの参照用スペクトルデータを迅速に用意することができる。
Production line 1: A brand, olive oil O1, machine oil M1, M2, M3, wrapping paper a
Production line 2: B brand, olive oil O2, machine oil M1, M2, M7, wrapping paper b
Production line 3: C brand, olive oil O2, machine oil M2, M5, M6, wrapping paper c
Production line 4: D brand, olive oil O3, machine oil M4, M5, M7, wrapping paper d
First, near infrared spectrum data for all oils used in production lines 1 to 4 is acquired (reference data acquisition step), and a library including these near infrared spectrum data is prepared. (Library preparation process). That is, olive oil O1 to O4 and machine oil M1 to M7 as sample oils are attached to arbitrary cigarettes, the wrapping paper is peeled off from the cigarettes, and each sample oil attached to the paper is irradiated with near-infrared rays, whereby near red External spectrum data (reference spectrum data) is acquired. Separately, prepare a cigarette (blank) with nothing attached to the wrapping paper, a cigarette with water attached to the wrapping paper, and a cigarette with menthol attached to the wrapping paper. Also good. These near-infrared spectral data (reference spectral data, blank, water, and menthol) are stored on a computer. As will be explained below, if the cigarette of a wrapping paper with unidentified oil is generated by carrying out the reference data acquisition process in advance, the reference spectrum of the oil that is likely to be the same as the type of the oil Data can be prepared quickly.
 ここで、製造ライン2において、巻紙にオイルのような物質が付着しているシガレットが発見されたとする。この場合、当該物質を特定対象のオイルとして、これに近赤外線を照射し、近赤外スペクトルデータを取得する(対象データ取得工程)。 Here, it is assumed that a cigarette in which a substance such as oil adheres to the wrapping paper is found in the production line 2. In this case, the said substance is made into oil of specific object, near infrared rays are irradiated to this, and near infrared spectrum data are acquired (object data acquisition process).
 また、コンピュータ上に保存してある上記近赤外スペクトルデータから、任意の参照用スペクトルデータを選択できる状態にする(ライブラリー準備工程)。ここで、製造ライン2では、オリーブオイルO2および機械オイルM1、M2、M7以外のオイルは使用していないため、シガレットの巻紙に付着しているオイルは、オリーブオイルO2および機械オイルM1、M2、M7の何れかである可能性が高い。そのため、オリーブオイルO2および機械オイルM1、M2、M7を、対象の紙に接触した可能性のあるオイルとして、上記ライブラリーから当該サンプルオイルの参照用スペクトルデータを選択する(データ選択工程)。対象データ取得工程とライブラリー準備工程およびデータ選択工程とは、どちらを先に行ってもよい。 Also, any reference spectrum data can be selected from the near infrared spectrum data stored on the computer (library preparation step). Here, since oil other than olive oil O2 and machine oils M1, M2, and M7 is not used in production line 2, the oil adhering to the cigarette wrapping paper is olive oil O2 and machine oils M1, M2, There is a high possibility that it is one of M7. Therefore, the reference spectral data of the sample oil is selected from the library as olive oil O2 and mechanical oils M1, M2, and M7 as oil that may have come into contact with the target paper (data selection step). Any of the target data acquisition process, the library preparation process, and the data selection process may be performed first.
 次に、特定対象のオイルの近赤外スペクトルデータを、上記のように選択された各々のサンプルオイルの参照用スペクトルデータと照合することによって、特定対象のオイルの種類を特定する(オイル特定工程)。このとき、ブランク、水、およびメンソールについての近赤外スペクトルデータとも照合してもよい。具体的には、各々の照合率を求める。例えば、当該照合率のうちで機械オイルM7の近赤外スペクトルデータが最も高かった場合には、特定対象のオイルの種類は機械オイルM7であると特定される。 Next, the near-infrared spectrum data of the oil to be specified is compared with the reference spectrum data of each sample oil selected as described above, thereby specifying the type of oil to be specified (oil specifying step). ). At this time, you may collate with the near-infrared spectrum data about a blank, water, and menthol. Specifically, each verification rate is obtained. For example, when the near-infrared spectrum data of the machine oil M7 is the highest among the verification rates, the type of oil to be identified is identified as the machine oil M7.
 もし、当該照合率が、上記で説明したしきい値よりも低い場合には、次の工程として、従来技術の特定方法を用いることもできる。 If the matching rate is lower than the threshold value described above, the conventional method can be used as the next step.
 なお、本発明の特定方法は、本使用例に限定されるものではない。 In addition, the specific method of the present invention is not limited to this use example.
 本発明は上述した各実施形態に限定されるものではなく、請求項に示した範囲で種々の変更が可能であり、異なる実施形態にそれぞれ開示された技術的手段を適宜組み合わせて得られる実施形態についても本発明の技術的範囲に含まれる。さらに、各実施形態にそれぞれ開示された技術的手段を組み合わせることにより、新しい技術的特徴を形成することができる。 The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications are possible within the scope shown in the claims, and embodiments obtained by appropriately combining technical means disclosed in different embodiments.

 以下、実施例に基づいて本発明をより詳細に説明するが、本発明は以下の実施例に限定されるものではない。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail based on examples, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
 〔実施例1〕
 実施例1においては、オイルの種類を特定する実験を説明する。
[Example 1]
In Example 1, an experiment for specifying the type of oil will be described.
 実施例1では、1種類のオリーブオイルおよび7種類のミネラルオイルの合計8種類のオイルを用いた。これらのオイルを、それぞれ、オイル1種類当たり220本の同一種類のシガレットに塗布し、塗布後にシガレットから巻紙を採取した。これらの巻紙を、オイルシミが中心にくるように1辺2cm程度の正方形に切り取って、分析用の試料とした。また、ブランクとして、オイルを塗布していない巻紙の試料も、同様に、220個準備した。表1は、これらの試料の一覧表である。O2のオイルはオリーブオイルであり、M2~M8のオイルはミネラルオイルである。 In Example 1, a total of 8 types of oils including 1 type of olive oil and 7 types of mineral oil were used. Each of these oils was applied to 220 cigarettes of the same type for each type of oil, and the wrapping paper was collected from the cigarettes after application. These wrapping papers were cut into squares of about 2 cm on a side so that the oil stains were in the center, and used as samples for analysis. Similarly, 220 wrapping paper samples not coated with oil were prepared as blanks. Table 1 is a list of these samples. O2 oil is olive oil, and M2 to M8 oils are mineral oils.

 これら試料の近赤外線スペクトルを、NIR分析装置(Foss NIRECO XDS Rapid Content Analyzer XM-1100 Series(株式会社ニレコ販売))を用いて測定した。 The near-infrared spectrum of these samples was measured using an NIR analyzer (Foss NIRECO XDS Rapid Analyzer XM-1100 Series (sold by Nireco Corporation)).
 それぞれの試料によって得られた各々220個のスペクトルのうち、ランダムな200個のスペクトルを、ライブラリーを作成するためのデータとして用いて、上記のNIR分析装置に内蔵されたオペレーションソフトウエア(VISION Version 3.5.0.0 Service Pack 6(株式会社ニレコ販売))上で、それぞれの試料の種類ごとに、下記のようにサンプル選択を行った。メソッドとして、主成分分析空間におけるマハラノビス距離、数式として、標準正規変量(Standard Normal Variate)処理、二次微分のセグメントを30nm、ギャップを0nm、波長領域を1000~2450nmに設定してサンプル選択をし、また、同時にこれらのデータのアウトライア(しきい値0.02(Much value))を検出した。そして、選択されたサンプルは、ライブラリーに保存した。上記の設定に関して、波長領域については、400nm~1000nmの領域の波長は、試料の種類に依存せず一定波長であったため、巻紙によるものと判断して削除した。二次微分のセグメントに関しては、O2オイルのスペクトルが、M2オイルのスペクトルと類似性が高かったため、セグメントを粗く設定することで判別しやすくした。また、O2オイル、M6オイルおよびM7オイルのスペクトルにおいて、サンプル間のばらつきが大きかったため、アウトライアのしきい値を狭く設定することで各サンプルの主成分空間を細かくし、他空間とのかぶりを極小化させた。主成分空間は、累積で99%までとった。 Of the 220 spectra obtained from each sample, random 200 spectra are used as data for creating a library, and the operation software (VISION Version) built in the NIR analyzer is used. On 3.5.0.0 Service Pack 6 (sold by Nireco Corporation)), sample selection was performed as follows for each sample type. Select the sample by setting the Mahalanobis distance in the principal component analysis space as the method, the standard normal variable (Standard 処理 Normal 数 式 Variate) processing as the formula, the segment of the second derivative is set to 30 nm, the gap is set to 0 nm, and the wavelength region is set to 1000 to 2450 nm. At the same time, an outlier (threshold value 0.02 (Much value)) of these data was detected. The selected samples were stored in a library. Regarding the above setting, the wavelength range of 400 nm to 1000 nm was a constant wavelength without depending on the type of sample, and was determined to be due to the wrapper and was deleted. Regarding the segment of the second derivative, since the spectrum of the O2 oil was highly similar to the spectrum of the M2 oil, it was easy to distinguish by setting the segment roughly. In addition, in the spectra of O2 oil, M6 oil, and M7 oil, there was a large variation between samples, so by setting the outlier threshold value narrower, the main component space of each sample was made finer and fogging with other spaces was achieved. Minimized. The principal component space was 99% cumulative.
 そして、上記と同じオペレーションソフトウエア上で、メソッドとして、波長による最大距離法、数式として、標準正規変量(Standard Normal Variate)処理、二次微分のセグメントを30nm、ギャップを0nm、波長領域を1000~2450nm、判別しきい値3.3、スペクトル安定化定数0.3に設定し、上記のライブラリーを用いて、試料の種類ごとに、同定確認方法を作成した。 Then, on the same operation software as above, the method is the maximum distance method by wavelength, the formula is standard normal variate (Standard NormalateVariate) processing, the second derivative segment is 30 nm, the gap is 0 nm, the wavelength region is 1000 ~ An identification confirmation method was created for each type of sample using the above library, with 2450 nm, discrimination threshold 3.3, and spectral stabilization constant 0.3.
 上述のスペクトルの残りの20個の試料を特定対象の試料とし、上記の同定確認方法を用いて、試料の種類ごとに同定確認を行った。表2は、試料の種類ごとの同定確認の結果、および試料の種類の特定結果である。 The remaining 20 samples in the spectrum described above were used as the samples to be identified, and identification confirmation was performed for each type of sample using the above identification confirmation method. Table 2 shows the result of identification confirmation for each type of sample and the result of specifying the type of sample.

 Sample IDは、試料の巻紙の種類(例えば、P2)、試料のオイルの種類(例えば、M2)、試料別の番号を示している。ID asは、自動判別による特定結果を示す。自動判別の欄にあるID resultは、特定対象の試料とライブラリーの各試料との類似性を計算した際の、得られた計算値が最も低いライブラリーの試料における当該計算値を示している。なお、当該計算値が低いほど、類似性が高いことを意味し、この最も低い値が下記で説明するしきい値よりも低い場合、この最も低い値を示した計算値の試料の種類が、ID asにおいて結果として示されている。自動判別の欄にあるP/Fは、設定したしきい値(3.3)に対しての合否判定であり、ID resultに示された値が当該しきい値よりも低く、かつ、上述の計算値のうちでID resultに示された値のみが当該しきい値よりも低い場合において、合格と示した。また、ID resultに示された値が、当該しきい値以上である場合は不合格と示し、上述の計算値のうちの2つ以上の計算値が、当該しきい値未満である場合は、識別不能と示した。これらのID resultおよびP/Fは、上述のソフトウエア上で機械的に導出したものである(自動確認)。手動確認の欄にある、それぞれの試料の種類に対応する値は、それぞれの同定確認方法によって得られた計算値を示す。上述のID resultおよびP/Fで特定対象の試料の種類を特定できなかった場合は、これらの値を比較して最も低い値を示した計算値を選択し、特定対象の試料の種類を特定した(手動確認)。最終判定は、これらの結果を示し、自動確認または手動確認によって種類を正しく特定できた場合は合格と示し、自動確認および手動確認によって種類を正しく特定できなかった場合は不合格と示した。特定対象の試料は、試料の種類ごとに20個あり、このうちで試料の種類を正しく特定でき、合格とした割合を判別率とした。 Sample ID indicates the type of wrapping paper of the sample (for example, P2), the type of oil of the sample (for example, M2), and the number for each sample. ID as indicates a specific result of automatic discrimination. The ID result in the automatic discrimination column indicates the calculated value of the sample of the library with the lowest obtained calculated value when the similarity between the sample of the specific target and each sample of the library is calculated. . Note that the lower the calculated value, the higher the similarity, and when this lowest value is lower than the threshold described below, the sample type of the calculated value showing the lowest value is The result is shown in ID as. P / F in the automatic discrimination column is a pass / fail judgment for the set threshold value (3.3), and the value shown in the ID result is lower than the threshold value and Of the calculated values, only the value indicated in the ID result is lower than the threshold value, indicating that the result is acceptable. Also, if the value shown in the ID result is equal to or greater than the threshold value, it indicates failure, and if two or more of the calculated values are less than the threshold value, Indicated as indistinguishable. These ID result and P / F are mechanically derived on the above-mentioned software (automatic confirmation). The value corresponding to each sample type in the manual confirmation column indicates a calculated value obtained by each identification confirmation method. If the above-mentioned ID result and P / F could not identify the type of the target sample, select the calculated value that shows the lowest value by comparing these values and specify the type of the target sample (Manual confirmation). The final judgment showed these results. When the type was correctly identified by automatic confirmation or manual confirmation, it was indicated as acceptable, and when the type was not correctly identified by automatic confirmation or manual confirmation, it was indicated as failed. There are 20 samples to be specified for each type of sample, and among these, the type of sample can be correctly specified, and the ratio of passing was taken as the discrimination rate.
 表2に示されるように、M5オイル以外の種類の試料の判別率は、95%以上であった。なお、M5オイルの判定ミスのすべては、M3オイルと判定したことによるものであった。また、オリーブオイルとその他のオイルとの判別に関しては、確実に行うことができた。 As shown in Table 2, the discrimination rate of the types of samples other than M5 oil was 95% or more. In addition, all the determination mistakes of M5 oil were due to the determination as M3 oil. In addition, discrimination between olive oil and other oils could be performed reliably.
 〔実施例2〕
 実施例2においては、オリーブオイルとそれ以外のオイルとを判別する実験を説明する。
[Example 2]
In Example 2, an experiment for discriminating between olive oil and other oils will be described.
 複数種の巻紙、ならびに当該巻紙に塗布するオイルとして1種類のオリーブオイルおよび1種類のミネラルオイルを用いた試料を、ライブラリー作成用の試料および特定対象の試料として使用して、実施例1と同様の設定条件のもとで同様の実験を行った。表3は、使用した巻紙および使用したオイルの一覧表である。表4は、試料の種類ごとの同定確認の結果、および試料の種類の特定結果を示す。Sample IDの各々の項目は、試料の巻紙の種類(例えば、P7)、試料のオイルの種類(例えば、オリーブオイル:記号O1)を意味し、これらの後にある数値は、同じ種類の巻紙と同じ種類のオイルの試料とを用いた3回の測定を意味する。他の項目に関しては、表2と同様である。 Samples using a plurality of types of wrapping paper and one olive oil and one kind of mineral oil as the oil applied to the wrapping paper are used as a sample for creating a library and a sample of a specific object. A similar experiment was performed under similar setting conditions. Table 3 is a list of used wrapping paper and used oil. Table 4 shows the result of identification confirmation for each type of sample and the result of specifying the type of sample. Each item of Sample ID means the type of the sample paper roll (for example, P7), the type of the sample oil (for example, olive oil: symbol O1), and the numerical values after these are the same as the same type of paper roll Means three measurements with a sample of the oil type. Other items are the same as in Table 2.
 また、同様に香料を用いた試料を作製し、当該香料のスペクトルデータを、上記オリーブオイル、上記ミネラルオイルのスペクトルデータ、およびブランクのスペクトルデータと照合した。また、何も付着していない巻紙(ブランク)についても、スペクトルデータを、上記オリーブオイル、上記ミネラルオイルのスペクトルデータ、およびブランクのスペクトルデータと照合した。結果は表4に示されている。 Similarly, a sample using a fragrance was prepared, and the spectrum data of the fragrance was collated with the spectrum data of the olive oil, the mineral oil, and the blank spectrum data. In addition, for the wrapping paper (blank) to which nothing adhered, the spectrum data was collated with the spectrum data of the olive oil, the mineral oil, and the spectrum data of the blank. The results are shown in Table 4.

 表3に示されるように、P1~P4の巻紙の素材は、亜麻であり、それぞれメーカーおよびスペックが異なるものである。P5~P7の巻紙の素材は、木材パルプであり、メーカーは同じであるが、スペックが異なるものである。P8の巻紙の素材は、木材9割、亜麻1割のパルプ紙であり、表面に香料が塗布されている(付香)。P9の巻紙の素材は、亜麻パルプであり、表面に香料が塗布されている。また、O1のオイルの種類は、オリーブオイルであり、M1のオイルの種類は、鉱物油(ミネラルオイル)である。 As shown in Table 3, the material of the wrapping paper of P1 to P4 is flax, and the manufacturers and specifications are different from each other. The material of the wrapping paper of P5 to P7 is wood pulp, the manufacturer is the same, but the specifications are different. The material of the P8 wrapping paper is 90% wood and 10% flax pulp paper, and the surface is coated with fragrance (scented). The material of the P9 wrapping paper is flax pulp, and the surface is coated with a fragrance. The type of O1 oil is olive oil, and the type of M1 oil is mineral oil (mineral oil).
