BACKGROUND The acid value is an important indicator for evaluating the quality of edible oil during storage. This study employs a portable near‐infrared (NIR) spectroscopy system to determine the acid value during edible oil storage. Four MPA‐based variable selection methods, namely competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), the variable iterative space shrinkage approach (VISSA), iteratively variable subset optimization (IVSO), and bootstrapping soft shrinkage (BOSS) were introduced to optimize the preprocessed NIR spectra. Support vector machine (SVM) models based on characteristic spectra obtained by different selection methods were then established to achieve quantitative detection of the acid value during edible oil storage. RESULTS The results revealed that, compared with the full‐spectrum SVM model, the SVM models established by the characteristic wavelengths optimized by the variable selection methods based on the MPA strategy exhibit a significant improvement in complexity and generalization performance. Furthermore, compared with the CARS, VISSA, and IVSO methods, the BOSS method obtained the least number of characteristic wavelength variables, and the SVM model established based on the optimized features of this method exhibited the optimal prediction performance. The root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) was 0.11 mg g−1, the coefficient of determination (Rp2) was 0.92 and the ratio performance deviation (RPD) was 2.82, respectively. Conclusion The overall results indicate that the variable selection methods based on the MPA strategy can select more targeted characteristic variables. This has good application prospects in NIR spectra feature optimization. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry
