To predict bacterial population behavior in food, statistical models with specific function form have been applied in the field of predictive microbiology. Modelers need to consider the linear or non-linear relationship between the response and explanatory variables in the statistical modeling approach. In the present study, we focused on machine learning methods to skip definition of primary and secondary structure model. Support vector regression, extremely randomized trees regression, and Gaussian process regression were used to predict population growth of Escherichia coli O157 at 15 and 25 °C without defining the primary and secondary models. Furthermore, the support vector regression model was applied to predict small population of bacteria cells with probability theory. The model performance of the machine learning models were nearly equal to that of the current statistical models. Machine learning models have a potential for predicting bacterial population behavior.
