In-vivo classification of THC and CBD contents in cannabis plants using hand-handled Raman spectrometer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We present an innovative approach to the in-vivo classification of THC/CBD-rich<br/>cannabis plants through a novel miniaturization strategy for Raman spectroscopy. By<br/>developing compact Raman spectrometers that utilize patented technology based on cheap<br/>non-stabilized laser diodes, densely-packed optics, and small pixel size sensors without<br/>cooling, the study achieves performance comparable to more expensive, research-grade<br/>systems. This miniaturization is facilitated by real-time calibration of Raman shift and<br/>intensity using a built-in reference channel. The miniRaman spectrometer effectively<br/>records high-quality Raman spectra of fresh cannabis and its products without the need for<br/>sample or environment preparation, identifying characteristic peaks of primary<br/>phytocannabinoids such as THC, CBD, and CGB and avoiding time-consuming HPLC<br/>analysis.<br/>Through spectral deconvolution and chemometrics, quantitative analysis becomes<br/>possible, significantly reducing the influence of fluorescence for more precise analysis [1].<br/>The application of this technology allows for the identification of THC or CBD-rich plants<br/>with a high accuracy rate of 92%, demonstrating the potential of Raman spectroscopy<br/>aided by machine learning for rapid, non-destructive cannabis classification.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
