Procedures for NIR calibration – Creation of NIRS spectroscopy calibration curvesArbeitsweisen zur NIR Kalibrierung – Erstellung von NIRS-Spektroskopie Kalibrierungskurven Le procedure di calibrazione NIR – Realizzazione di curve di calibrazione NIRS spettroscopia

Do you know the effect that you prefer to try out their favorite data pretreatments in combination and often try the same wavelength selections based spectra of the visualized?

You try as six to ten combinations until one of them selects his favorite calibration model, to then continue to optimize. Since then suddenly fall to outliers, because it goes in depth, so is familiar with the data, we know now the spectra of numbers of outliers and is familiar with the extreme values.

Now, the focus is on the major components (principal components, Latent Variables, factors) and makes sure not to over-fit and under-fit not to. The whole takes a few hours and finally one is content with the model found.

So what would happen if you all in the beginning tried variants found outliers removed and re-evaluated and compared? The results would be better than that of the previous model choice? One does not try out? Because it is cumbersome and takes hours again?

We have developed a software which simplifies this so that also the number of model variations can be increased as desired. The variants generation is automated with an intelligent control system, as well as the optimization and comparing the models and finally the final selection of the best calibration model.

Our software includes all the usual known data pretreatment methods (data pre-processing) and can combine them useful. Since many Preteatments are directly dependent on the wavelength selection, such as the normalization the determined within a wavelength range of the scaling factors to normalize the spectra so that pretreatments with the wavelength ranges may be combined. So a variety of settings sensible model comes together that are all calculated and optimized. For the automatic selection of the relevant wavelength ranges, different methods are used, which are based on the spectral intensities. Thus, for example, regions with total absorption is not used, and often interfering water bands removed or retained.

Over all the calculated model variations as a summary outlier analysis can be made. Are there any new outliers (hidden outlier) discovered, all previous models can be automatically recalculated, optimized and compared without these outliers.

From this great number of calculated models with the statistical quality reviews (prediction performance) the optimum calibration can now be selected. For this purpose, not simply sorting by the prediction error (prediction error, SEP RMSEP) or the coefficient of determination (coefficient of determination r2), but by several statistical and test values are used jointly toward the final assessment of optimal calibration.

Thus we have created a platform that allows the highly automated work what a man can never do with a commercial software.

We therefore offer the largest number of matched to your application problem modeling calculations and choose the best calibration for you!

This means that our results are faster, more accurate, robust and objective basis (person independent) and quite easy for you to apply.

You have the full control of the models supplied by us, because we provide a clearly structured and detailed blueprint of the complete calibration, with all settings and parameters, with all necessary statistical characteristics and graphics.

Using this blueprint, you can adjust the quantitative calibration model itself in the software you use, understand and compare. You have everything under control form model creation, model validation and model refinement.

Your privacy is very important to us. The NIR data that you briefly provide us for the custom calibration development will remain of course your property. Your NIR data will be deleted after the job with us.

Interested, then do not hesitate to contact us.

Kennen Sie den Effekt, dass Sie bevorzugt ihre Lieblings-Datenvorbehandlungen in Kombination durchprobieren und oft die gleichen Wellenlängen-Selektionen anhand der visualisierten Spektren ausprobieren?

Man probiert z.B. sechs bis zehn Kombinationen aus, bis man davon sein favorisiertes Kalibrationsmodell auswählt, um es dann weiter zu optimieren. Da fallen dann plötzlich Ausreisser (Outlier) auf, weil man in die Tiefe geht, also mit den Daten vertraut ist, man kennt mittlerweile die Spektren-Nummern der Ausreisser und ist mit den Extremwerten vertraut.

Jetzt fokussiert man sich auf die Hauptkomponenten (Principal Components, Latent Variables, Faktoren) und achtet darauf nicht zu über-fitten und nicht zu unter-fitten. Das ganze dauert ein paar Stunden und schliesslich begnügt man sich mit dem gefundenen Modell.

Was wäre nun, wenn man in all den zu Beginn ausprobierten Varianten, die gefundenen Ausreisser entfernt und nochmals berechnet und vergleicht? Wären die Ergebnisse besser als die von der bisherigen Modell Wahl? Man probiert es nicht aus? Weil es mühsam ist und wieder Stunden dauert?

Wir haben eine Software entwickelt die dies so vereinfacht, dass auch die Anzahl der Modell Variationen beliebig erhöht werden kann. Die Varianten Erzeugung läuft automatisiert mit einem intelligenten Regelsystem, so auch die Optimierung und das Vergleichen der Modelle und schliesslich die finale Auswahl des Besten Kalibrations Modell.

Unsere Software beinhaltet alle üblichen bekannten Datenvorbehandlungs Methoden (Preteatments) und kann diese sinnvoll kombinieren. Da viele Preteatments direkt abhängig sind von der Wellenlängen Selektion, so z.B. die Normalisierungen die innerhalb eines Wellenlängen-Bereiches die Skalierungsfaktoren ermittelt, um die Spektren damit zu normieren, werden die Pretreatments mit dem Wellenlängen-Bereichen kombiniert. So kommt eine Vielzahl von sinnvollen Modell Einstellungen zusammen die alle berechnet und optimiert werden.

Für die automatische Auswahl der relevanten Wellenlängen Bereiche kommen verschiedene Methoden zum Einsatz, die sich an den Spektren Intensitäten orientieren. So werden z.B. Bereiche mit Totalabsorption nicht verwendet, oftmals störende Wasserbanden entfernt oder beibehalten.

Über all die berechneten Modell Variationen können so zusammenfassende Outlier Analysen gemacht werden. Werden durch die gefahrenen Versuche neue Outlier (Hidden Outlier) entdeckt, können alle bisherigen Modelle automatisch ohne diese Ausreisser nachberechnet, optimiert und verglichen werden.

Aus dieser Vielzahl berechneter Modelle mit deren Statistischen Güte Bewertungen (Prediction Performance) kann nun die optimale Kalibration ausgewählt werden. Dazu wird nicht einfach nach dem Vorhersage Fehler (Prediction Error, SEP, RMSEP) oder nach dem Bestimmtheitsmaß (Coefficient of Determination r2) sortiert, sondern mehrere Statistik- und Testwerte gemeinsam zur umfänglichen Beurteilung der optimalen Kalibration herangezogen.

Somit haben wir eine Plattform geschaffen, die es ermöglicht hochgradig automatisiert das zu tun, was ein Mensch niemals mit einer handelsüblichen Software tun kann.

Wir bieten damit die grösste Anzahl auf Ihr Applikations-Problem angepasste Modellierungs-Berechnungen und wählen die beste Kalibration für Sie aus!

Das heisst, unsere Ergebnisse sind schneller, genauer, robuster und objektiv ausgewählt (Personen unabhängig) und für Sie ganz einfach anzuwenden.

Die Kontrolle über die von uns gelieferten Modelle haben Sie vollumfänglich, denn wir liefern einen klar strukturierten und detaillierten Bauplan der  kompletten Kalibration, mit allen Einstellungen und Parametern, mit allen notwendigen Statistischen Kenngrössen und Grafiken.

Anhand dieses Bauplans können Sie das quantitative Kalibrations Modell selbst in der von Ihnen verwendeten Software nachstellen, nachvollziehen und vergleichen. Sie haben so alles im Griff, für die Modell-Validierung und die Modellpflege.

Der Datenschutz ist uns sehr wichtig. Die NIR Daten, die Sie uns für die Kalibrations-Erstellung kurzzeitig zu Verfügung stellen bleiben selbstverständlich Ihr Eigentum. Ihre NIR Daten werden nach Abschluss des Auftrags bei uns gelöscht.

So what would happen if you all in the beginning tried variants found outliers removed and re-evaluated and compared? The results would be better than that of the previous model choice? One does not try out? Because it is cumbersome and takes hours again?

We have developed a software which simplifies this so that also the number of model variations can be increased as desired. The variants generation is automated with an intelligent control system, as well as the optimization and comparing the models and finally the final selection of the best calibration model.

Our software includes all the usual known data pretreatment methods (data pre-processing) and can combine them useful. Since many Preteatments are directly dependent on the wavelength selection, such as the normalization the determined within a wavelength range of the scaling factors to normalize the spectra so that pretreatments with the wavelength ranges may be combined. So a variety of settings sensible model comes together that are all calculated and optimized. For the automatic selection of the relevant wavelength ranges, different methods are used, which are based on the spectral intensities. Thus, for example, regions with total absorption is not used, and often interfering water bands removed or retained.

Over all the calculated model variations as a summary outlier analysis can be made. Are there any new outliers (hidden outlier) discovered, all previous models can be automatically recalculated, optimized and compared without these outliers.

From this great number of calculated models with the statistical quality reviews (prediction performance) the optimum calibration can now be selected. For this purpose, not simply sorting by the prediction error (prediction error, SEP RMSEP) or the coefficient of determination (coefficient of determination r2), but by several statistical and test values are used jointly toward the final assessment of optimal calibration.

Thus we have created a platform that allows the highly automated work what a man can never do with a commercial software.

We therefore offer the largest number of matched to your application problem modeling calculations and choose the best calibration for you!

This means that our results are faster, more accurate, robust and objective basis (person independent) and quite easy for you to apply.

You have the full control of the models supplied by us, because we provide a clearly structured and detailed blueprint of the complete calibration, with all settings and parameters, with all necessary statistical characteristics and graphics.

Using this blueprint, you can adjust the quantitative calibration model itself in the software you use, understand and compare. You have everything under control form model creation, model validation and model refinement.

Your privacy is very important to us. The NIR data that you briefly provide us for the custom calibration development will remain of course your property. Your NIR data will be deleted after the job with us.

NIR Spectroscopy Calibration Report for quantitative predictive models

When you send your quantitative NIR spectra data to our NIR Calibration Model Service, you get a detailed calibration report (calibration protocol) of the found optimal calibration settings, so you are able to see all insights (ISO 12099) and easily capable to re-build the model in your NIR/Chemometric software.

Here is a part of our calibration report, that exactly describes the data used in the calibration set (CSet), the validation set (VSet) and the test set (TSet). The numbers are the number ids of the spectra in your delivered NIR data file.

The calibration method settings and parameters are

Waveselection : the variable selection or wavenumber selection or wavelength selection

Pretreatments : the spectral data pre-processing

PCs : the number of  Principal Components (PC) or Latent Variables (LV)

Method : the modeling method algorithm used, e.g. PLS

Then the statistical analysis of the PLS model by the different sets (CSet, VSet, Tset).

Calibration Report

Statistical analysis of calibration, validation and test results : 1 Name, 2 Unit, 3 N : number of spectra, 4 N : number of samples, 5 Average spectra count per sample, 6 Reference values, 7 Min, 8 Mean, 9 Median, 10 Max, 11 Standard deviation, 12 Skewness : left (-) or right (+) lack of symmetry, 13 Kurtosis : flat (-) or peaked (+) shape, 14 Model statistics, 15 RPD, 16 R², 17 RMSEC, RMSEP, RMSET : root mean square of prediction errors, 18 SEC, SEP, SET : standard error (bias corrected), 19 Bias, 20 Skewness of prediction errors, 21 Kurtosis of prediction errors, 22 Intercept, 23 Slope, 24 Intercept (reverse), 25 Slope (reverse), 26 Sample Prediction Repeatability Error, 27 Sample Prediction Repeatability Error (of Missing data MSet)

This shows how we deliver the optimal settings. With the statistical values, the NIR model predicted values of all spectra and additional plots you are able to compare with your re-built model to verify that the models perform nearly equally.

Your Calibration Report including all calibration-, validation- and test statistics and plots can be downloaded from our Web-Shop after processing of your Calibration Request.

Proof of Concept and WorkProof of Concept and WorkProof of Concept and Work

In 2021 we automatically calibrated Mango DM with RMSEP = 0.7247 with our software
that performs better than the one in an research paper that states :
  • “Readers are encouraged to use this big data set and produce innovative ideas and algorithms to achieve RMSEP better than 0.79%.”
See Mango DM – dry matter prediction in mango fruit with near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy



Chemometric software competitions (aka shootouts) are a good way to check algorithms, software and knowledge against all other experts in the field.

Imagine that the prediction results can be produced with any kind of software and newest algorithms.

And we just use PLS right to generate models that can be used on all NIR software systems, because PLS is a quasi standard, supported in all major chemometrics software.

Our software framework reached very good results, got gold (rank #1) and silver (rank #2) during well known international NIR Chemometric software shootouts* so far, the competitions are held bi-annual.

The Kaji Competition

A set of NIR spectral data will be available for downloading from the ANISG website and contestants will be asked to find and explain a "best" chemometric model to robustly predict samples of the same type.
A panel will select the three "best" entries based on the predicted results and spectroscopic explanation of the products and attributes of interest.

The IDRC Competition

The Software Shootout has been a staple of the IDRC. It is a competition amongst participants of the conference that aims at determining the person who developed the best model and obtained the lowest prediction error for a particular problem.
Every IDRC, a new challenge is proposed to participants. The challenge consists of a data set with calibration, test and a validation set.
Participants are given target values for the calibration and test sets but must do their best to develop a model that will predict the validation set as accurately and precisely as possible. Challenges from all sorts of fields of NIRS have been used (agriculture, biomedical, pharmaceutical, soil, …).

Conclusion

Our chemometric software framework can significantly reduce the time spent for NIR method development and fine optimization. The time saving can be achieved through highly automated experiments and the usage of cloud computing. Calibrations are built and evaluated using automated good practices protocols resulting in useful, precise and robust Calibrations. The high number of experiments enables a deep screening of the solution domain to find the optimum calibration settings, something currently unavailable in standard chemometric software.

Summary of the NIR Chemometric survey pollsSummary of the NIR Chemometric survey polls

Summary of the NIR Chemometric survey polls (as of end of Sept. 2013)

The interesting finding is that most of the answers fit the following pattern. The most companies that use NIR have one NIR Instrument and only one employee that is able to develop NIR calibrations. For that the most common off-the-shelf chemometrics program is used and spent 2 hours or over a month and therefore gets no calibration training about the complex topics like Chemometrics and NIR Spectroscopy or only once (introduction). The calibration maintenance ranges from never to 3 times a year. Interestingly, there was no one who uses portable NIR instruments. We continue our surveys, for the discovery of new trends. Conclusion Seeing this picture, we think that there is huge potential to improve the calibrations. Advanced knowledge can help individuals to build the calibrations with best practices and improve their models accuracy and reliability. Once the decision and investment in NIR technology is done, you should get the best out of your data, because this extra NIR performance can be given by calibration optimization. We offer this as an easy to use and independent service.
