Sumario:The increasing consumption worldwide of tortilla chips make it relevant to design and optimize their industrial quality analysis. Surface, structural, and total oil content during frying of tortilla chips fried at 160, 175, and 190°C for different times were analyzed. The aim was to obtain a relationship between oil content and features from their digital images. The results showed a high linear correlation (R > 0.90) between oil content with image features at each frying temperature, indicating that trustable models can be developed, allowing the prediction of oil content of tortilla chips by using selected features extracted from their digital images, without the necessity of measuring them. Cross-validation technique demonstrated the repeatability of each model and their good performance (>90%). © 2014 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
