Multivariate Curve Resolution deals with spectra, or other signals, from samples containing multiple components, and aims at recovering the pure components.
On the concept of wavelet transform and decomposition, and its application for denoising of spectra.
The Kennard-Stone algorithm is a criterion to divide a dataset into a calibration and a validation subset. Here's an introduction to the method and a basic Python implementation.
The PCA correlation circle is a useful tool to visually display the correlation between spectral bands and principal components. The correlation can be quantified through the Euclidean distance and …
Aquagrams are diagrams charting the relative strength of the NIR reflectance or absorbance of specific bands in water-based systems. Here's an example code to plot an aquagram using Matplotlib.
Using parallel computation to speed up cross-validation analysis for large data sets.
Setting the parameters of a Savitzky-Golay filter seems more a craft than a science. Here's my method to find an optimal filter, complete with code.
Meet a fairly unknown member of the spectral smoothing family: the Fourier spectral smoothing method. Learn some theory and Python code implementation.
The secret behind perfect smoothing is a wise choice of parameters. In this tutorial you will learn about the Savitzky–Golay method and the way to optimise its performance
How do we make sure we are detecting only true outliers and not cherry-picking from the data? Here's a method based on the Mahalanobis distance with PCA.
Exploratory analysis is an essential part of data analysis. Learn a handy way to explore your dataset with NIR data correlograms with Seaborn in Python.
Not every data point is created equal. In this post we'll show how to perform outliers detection with PLS regression for NIR spectroscopy in Python.
Three methods to export a Python NIR regression model and how to load it back for future use. Worked Python codes to discuss pros and cons of these methods.
Worked example of two scatter correction techniques for NIR spectroscopy in Python: Multiplicative Scatter Correction and Standard Normal Variate.
