A nested analysis of variance combined with simultaneous component analysis, ASCA, was proposed to model high-dimensional chromatographic data. The data were obtained from an experiment designed to investigate the effect of production season, quality grade and post-production processing (steam pasteurization) on the phenolic content of the infusion of the popular herbal tea, rooibos, at ‘cup-of-tea’...
Differences in tax levels for diesel oil stimulate the illegal removal of characteristic diazo compounds purposely added to designate its possible usage. In order to reduce the losses in the national income, there is a strong need to develop a sensitive and cost-effective analytical procedure for the detection of this illegal action. In this study, we describe a novel analytical approach for a qualitative...
In this article several approaches for the exploratory analysis of two-dimensional chromatographic signals (fingerprints) are presented. Their usefulness is illustrated on experimental chromatographic data obtained from high performance liquid chromatography using the photodiode-array detector (HPLC-DAD). Among the methods discussed are principal component analysis (PCA), hierarchical clustering methods...
Often in analytical practice, a set of samples is described by different types of measurements in the hope that a comprehensive characterisation of samples will provide a more complete picture and will help in determining the similarities among samples. The main focus is then on how to combine the information described by different measurement variables and how to analyse it simultaneously. In other...
Missing elements and outliers can often occur in experimental data. The presence of outliers makes the evaluation of any least squares model parameters difficult, while the missing values influence the adequate identification of outliers. Therefore, approaches that can handle incomplete data containing outliers are highly valued. In this paper, we present the expectation-maximization robust soft independent...
The aim of this work was to show usefulness of chemometric analysis in processing of the data describing production of drinking water in the Silesian region of Poland. Water samples have been collected within the period of 1 year and the quality of water was characterized by a number of physical, chemical and microbiological parameters. Principal component analysis (PCA) and STATIS (Structuration...
An efficient methodology for dealing with missing values and outlying observations simultaneously in principal component analysis (PCA) is proposed. The concept described in the paper consists of using a robust technique to obtain robust principal components combined with the expectation maximization approach to process data with missing elements. It is shown that the proposed strategy works well...
The goal of this study is to derive a methodology for modeling the biological activity of non-nucleoside HIV Reverse Transcriptase (RT) inhibitors. The difficulties that were encountered during the modeling attempts are discussed, together with their origin and solutions. With the selected multivariate techniques: robust principal component analysis, partial least squares, robust partial least squares...
The compression and the visualization of the data have been always a subject of a great deal of excitement. Since multidimensional data sets are difficult to interpret and visualize, much of the attention is drawn how to compress them efficiently. Usually, the compression of dimensionality is considered as the first step of exploratory data analysis. Here, we focus our attention on autoassociative...
