Chemometric Methods for Spectral Data Analysis: Technology and Applications


What is Chemometrics in Analytical Spectroscopy?




Chemometrics is a branch of chemistry that uses mathematical and statistical methods to design, select, and interpret chemical measurements. Analytical spectroscopy is a technique that measures the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter, such as absorption, emission, reflection, or scattering. Chemometrics in analytical spectroscopy is the application of chemometric methods to process and analyze spectral data, which are usually complex, high-dimensional, and noisy.

Data Dimensionality Reduction




Data dimensionality reduction is the process of reducing the complexity and redundancy of spectral data by transforming the original high-dimensional data to a lower-dimensional space that preserves the most relevant information for the analysis. Data dimensionality reduction can help to overcome the curse of dimensionality, enhance the computational efficiency and stability of the models, and reveal the latent structure or patterns of spectral data. Some common techniques for data dimensionality reduction are:


  • Principal component analysis (PCA): transforming spectral data to a new orthogonal space that captures the maximum variance of the data by using eigendecomposition or singular value decomposition (SVD)

Multivariate Calibration




Multivariate calibration is the process of building models that relate spectral data to chemical properties or concentrations by using regression techniques. Multivariate calibration can be used for quantitative analysis of spectral data, such as estimating the amount or concentration of certain substances or components in a sample. Multivariate calibration can be divided into linear or nonlinear models depending on the nature of the relationship between spectral data and response variable. Some common techniques for multivariate calibration are:

  • Support vector regression (SVR): building a nonlinear model that relates spectral data to response variable by using a kernel function that maps spectral data to a higher-dimensional space where a linear model can be fitted by using an optimization algorithm that minimizes a loss function with regularization term



Pattern Recognition




Pattern recognition is the process of classifying or clustering spectral data into groups or categories based on their similarities or differences. Pattern recognition can be used for qualitative analysis of spectral data, such as identifying the presence or absence of certain substances or components in a sample. Pattern recognition can be divided into supervised or unsupervised learning depending on the availability of prior information or labels for the spectral data. Some common techniques for pattern recognition are:


  • Linear discriminant analysis (LDA): classifying spectral data into predefined groups by using a linear transformation that maximizes the between-group variance and minimizes the within-group variance of the spectral data



  • K-nearest neighbors (kNN): classifying spectral data into predefined groups by using a distance-based method that assigns the label of the majority of the k closest neighbors of the spectral data

  • K-means clustering: clustering spectral data into unknown groups by using a centroid-based method that assigns each spectral data to the nearest cluster center and updates the cluster centers iteratively until convergence



  • Hierarchical clustering: clustering spectral data into unknown groups by using a linkage-based method that merges or splits spectral data or clusters based on their distance or similarity until a desired number or level of clusters is reached



Calibration Sample Selection




Calibration sample selection is the process of choosing representative samples for building calibration models by using experimental design or optimization techniques. Calibration sample selection can help to improve the accuracy and robustness of the calibration models, reduce the cost and time of the measurements, and enhance the generalization and transferability of the models. Some common methods for calibration sample selection are:


  • Experimental design: selecting samples that cover the range and distribution of the predictor and response variables by using factorial design, fractional factorial design, response surface design, etc.

  • Competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS): selecting samples that optimize a fitness function or criterion by using an iterative method that assigns weights to samples based on their contribution or significance to the model performance



Outlier Detection




Outlier detection is the process of identifying and removing abnormal or erroneous spectral data that deviate from the normal or expected behavior of the data. Outlier detection can help to enhance the quality and reliability of spectral data, improve the accuracy and robustness of the models, and avoid misleading or incorrect results. Some common methods for outlier detection are:


  • Distance-based methods: detecting outliers based on their distance or deviation from the mean, median, mode, or other central tendency measures of spectral data by using Mahalanobis distance, Euclidean distance, Chebyshev's inequality, etc.



  • Distribution-based methods: detecting outliers based on their probability or likelihood of belonging to a certain distribution or population of spectral data by using normal distribution, t-distribution, chi-square distribution, etc.



  • Model-based methods: detecting outliers based on their residual or error from a fitted model or a reference value of spectral data by using leverage analysis, studentized residual analysis, Dixon's test, Grubbs' test, etc.

Model update and maintenance is the process of updating and validating calibration models over time by using cross-validation, external validation, transfer techniques, etc. Model update and maintenance can help to ensure the validity and reliability of calibration models, adapt to changes in instrument performance, sample variation, environmental factors, etc., and avoid model degradation or obsolescence. Some common techniques for model update and maintenance are:


  • Cross-validation: validating calibration models by using a resampling method that splits spectral data into training and test sets and evaluates model performance on different combinations of these sets by using metrics such as root mean square error (RMSE), coefficient of determination (R2), etc.



  • External validation: validating calibration models by using an independent set of spectral data that was not used for building the models and evaluates model performance on this set by using metrics such as RMSE, R2, etc.



  • Transfer techniques: updating calibration models across different instruments or conditions by using standardization, correction, adaptation techniques, etc.



  • Standardization: updating calibration models by using a set of common or reference samples that are measured on both instruments or under both conditions and applying a linear transformation to align or match the spectral data



  • Correction: updating calibration models by using a set of transfer samples that have known response values and are measured on both instruments or under both conditions and applying a correction factor or function to adjust the model parameters or predictions



  • Adaptation: updating calibration models by using a set of new samples that are measured on the new instrument or under the new condition and adding or replacing them to the original calibration set or model



Multi-Spectral Fusion




Multi-spectral fusion is the process of combining information from different spectral sources or modalities to enhance the quality and quantity of spectral data. Multi-spectral fusion can help to improve the accuracy and robustness of the models, overcome the limitations or drawbacks of single spectral sources or modalities, and reveal complementary or synergistic information from spectral data. Some common approaches for multi-spectral fusion are:


  • Concatenation: fusing spectral data by appending or stacking different spectral sources or modalities together to form a single high-dimensional vector or matrix



  • Integration: fusing spectral data by integrating or combining different spectral sources or modalities into a single low-dimensional vector or matrix by using data dimensionality reduction techniques, such as PCA, PLS, etc.
