Abstract

This paper reports an application of rough set theory for evaluating polysaccharides extraction from apple pomace. The importance of factors affecting polysaccharides yield is analyzed by the means of attribute reduction. The significances of four factors are obtained. It is found that extraction time and ratio of solution to sample are the dominant factors. The results show that rough set theory can effectively analyze and evaluate factors influencing polysaccharides yield from apple pomace and can be used in the analysis of extraction of functional components in foods.
