Abstract
Honey is a natural substance well-known as supplement for maintaining good health. It is also useful as an ingredient in medicine. However, the market price of pure honey is expensive, causing irresponsible parties to adulterate pure honey by adding various sugar substances. It is very challenging to come out with a suitable method to prove the presence of adulterants in honey products. Most previous studies involved close data observation from experts that is time-consuming. This research proposes the development of intelligent classifier to aid the task of differentiating pure honey from adulterated ones. Besides intelligent classifier, this research has also developed an intelligent estimator for the purpose of giving a percentage estimation of pure honey that exists in adulterated honey sample. The pure honey classifier and estimator are developed using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approach: Ten types of pure honey from different brands and sugar compounds have been used to prepare various pure and adulterated honey (at different percentages of pure honey) samples.
