This paper proposes a near-infrared laser leakage detection system based on tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy at 1392 nm, combined with a LightGBM machine learning model. The system detects gaseous ethanol vapor escaping from leaking bottles, addressing the spectral interference caused by ambient water vapor. A total of 1410 samples were collected, and each raw 2000-point spectral contour was compressed into a 200-dimensional feature vector through baseline correction, Z-score normalization, and uniform down-sampling. A two-stage hyperparameter optimization strategy yielded the optimal LightGBM configuration with a 5-fold cross-validation. For the binary classification task, the model achieved an AUC of 0.9949 and an inference speed of 0.0058 ms per sample on a CPU, outperforming Random Forest, PLS, and four deep learning models. For the regression task, the model achieved an R2 of 0.5854 ± 0.0919. An anti-interference experiment on 422 samples under varying flow rates, temperatures, and commercial wine types confirmed the model's robustness, achieving an overall accuracy of 0.94 and an alcohol recall of 0.99. To further validate the system under realistic conditions, a simulated micro-leakage test was conducted using a negative-pressure extraction method: 320 samples were collected from artificially damaged commercial wine bottles placed in a custom-built acrylic vacuum chamber that replicates the production line enclosure. The model achieved an accuracy of 0.95 with zero false negatives. The complete detection cycle takes no more than 5 s per bottle, enabling non-destructive, rapid, and online packaging integrity assessment. The results demonstrate that the proposed system provides a low-cost and reliable solution for wine bottle leakage detection suitable for industrial deployment.PMID:42515357 | PMC:PMC13419305 | DOI:10.3390/s26144474
