Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Detecting mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol , aflatoxins , and zearalenone in grains is crucial for ensuring crop safety and maintaining consumer health, both for humans and animals. These toxins pose serious health risks, affect the marketability of grains in international markets, and influence their economic value. Hence, this paper reviews the use of machine learning (ML) in detecting and managing grain mycotoxins to transform grain safety measures. The review will cover the common mycotoxins in grains, their adverse effects , and techniques for detecting mycotoxin data. It describes the latest ML models for detecting or predicting these toxins. The paper evaluates the effectiveness of these ML techniques, identifies research gaps, and suggests potential solutions. Overall, this review establishes a comprehensive baseline for future research on grain mycotoxin detection, assessing the extent to which various ML methodologies have been explored. This paper aims to create a foundational understanding for readers about the state-of-the-art techniques in ML. This area will further advance readers' knowledge of detecting and managing mycotoxins in grains.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
