University of Jaén and Acesur Develop an Artificial Intelligence Project to Advance Knowledge About the Preservation and Use of Olive Oil

This work is part of the 'SMART-O-LIVE: Sustainable and Healthier Olive Oil Agriculture, Milling, and Smart Consumption in the New Agri-Industry of the Future' project

The University of Jaén (UJA), through their SIMIDAT research group, is developing an Artificial Intelligence project in collaboration with Acesur, the leading Spanish company in the olive oil market, to advance knowledge about the preservation and use of olive oil.

This work is part of the 'SMART-O-LIVE: Sustainable and Healthier Olive Oil Agriculture, Milling, and Smart Consumption in the New Agri-Industry of the Future' project, which will extend until October 2024.

The project has two main objectives. The first one is to obtain models for predicting the shelf life of olive oil when used for frying. For this first objective, an intelligent modeling of the evolution of the maximum number of fryings that the oil can withstand before certain undesirable substances are generated during frying and reach certain limits will be carried out. Variables related to the quality of the olive oil used, the food being fried, and the frying process will be analyzed.

The second objective aims to model the shelf life of olive oil under storage conditions using intelligent techniques. In this case, a prediction or modeling of the aging of olive oil will be conducted based on variables such as the type of oil, type of packaging, and storage conditions, among others.

To achieve both goals, the research will leverage the most efficient current prediction methods such as Machine Learning and Deep Learning, while also proposing new models.

The 'SMART-O-LIVE' project is part of the Science and Innovation Missions program within the framework of the Recovery, Transformation, and Resilience Plan and the State Program to Catalyze Innovation and Business Leadership of the 2021-2023 State Plan for Scientific, Technical, and Innovation Research, led by the Center for Industrial Technological Development (CDTI).
