This excellent tutorial shows how to produce and use quantitative analytical calibrations in a laboratory or production environment, estimate the time and resources required to develop analytical calibrations, and employ the quantitative software provided with a wide range of instruments and commercial software packages.
Written in a step-by-step, conversational style, Chemometric Techniques for Quantitative Analysis describes and fully illustrates the Classical Least Squares (CLS), Inverse Least-Squares (ILS), Principal Component Regression (PCR), and Partial Least-Squares (PLS) techniques. It discusses the selection of calibration standards and introduces the fundamentals of factor spaces used in qualitative and discriminant analysis. It details the initial and continuing validation of calibrations and analyzers and explains the similarities, differences, pitfalls, and tradeoffs among
different chemometric techniques. It outlines the necessary steps for the creation and successful long-term deployment of analytical calibrations. It demonstrates how chemometric techniques can improve calibrations and produce better analytical results. It facilitates understanding of the current literature and reveals important capabilities and features in your own software. |
