Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to predict wine quality based on physicochemical data. In this study, two large separate data sets which were taken from UC Irvine Machine Learning Repository were used. These data sets contain 1599 instances for red wine and 4898 instances for white wine with 11 features of physicochemical data such as alcohol, chlorides, density, total sulfur dioxide, free sulfur dioxide, residual sugar, and pH. First, the instances were successfully classified as red wine and white wine with the accuracy of 99.5229% by using Random Forests Algorithm. Then, the following three different data mining algorithms were used to classify the quality of both red wine and white wine: k-nearest-neighbourhood, random forests and support vector machines. There are 6 quality classes of red wine and 7 quality classes of white wine. The most successful classification was obtained by using Random Forests Algorithm. In this study, it is also observed that the use of principal component analysis in the feature selection increases the success rate of classification in Random Forests Algorithm.
