2、 last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These practices cover a guide for the multivariate calibration of infrared spectrometers used in determining the phys
3、ical orchemical characteristics of materials. These practices are applicable to analyses conducted in the near infrared (NIR) spectralregion (roughly 780 to 2500 nm) through the mid infrared (MIR) spectral region (roughly 4000 to 400 cm1).NOTE 1While the practices described herein deal specifically
4、with mid- and near-infrared analysis, much of the mathematical and procedural detailcontained herein is also applicable for multivariate quantitative analysis done using other forms of spectroscopy. The user is cautioned that typical andbest practices for multivariate quantitative analysis using oth
5、er forms of spectroscopy may differ from practices described herein for mid- andnear-infrared spectroscopies.1.2 Procedures for collecting and treating data for developing IR calibrations are outlined. Definitions, terms, and calibrationtechniques are described. Criteria for validating the performan
6、ce of the calibration model are described.1.3 The implementation of these practices require that the IR spectrometer has been installed in compliance with themanufacturers specifications. In addition, it assumes that, at the times of calibration and of validation, the analyzer is operatingat the con
7、ditions specified by the manufacturer.1.4 These practices cover techniques that are routinely applied in the near and mid infrared spectral regions for quantitativeanalysis. The practices outlined cover the general cases for coarse solids, fine ground solids, and liquids. All techniques coveredrequi
8、re the use of a computer for data collection and analysis.1.5 These practices provide a questionnaire against which multivariate calibrations can be examined to determine if theyconform to the requirements defined herein.1.6 For some multivariate spectroscopic analyses, interferences and matrix effe
9、cts are sufficiently small that it is possible tocalibrate using mixtures that contain substantially fewer chemical components than the samples that will ultimately be analyzed.While these surrogate methods generally make use of the multivariate mathematics described herein, they do not conform topr
10、ocedures described herein, specifically with respect to the handling of outliers. Surrogate methods may indicate that they makeuse of the mathematics described herein, but they should not claim to follow the procedures described herein.1.7 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard

Summary of Practices4.1 Multivariate mathematics is applied to correlate the spectra measured for a set of calibration samples to reference componentconcentrations or property values for the set of samples. The resultant multi
34、variate calibration model is applied to the analysis ofspectra of unknown samples to provide an estimate of the component concentration or property values for the unknown sample.4.2 Multilinear regression (MLR), principal components regression (PCR), and partial least squares (PLS) are examples ofmu
35、ltivariate mathematical techniques that are commonly used for the development of the calibration model. Other mathematicaltechniques are also used, but may not detect outliers, and may not be validated by the procedure described in these practices.4.3 Statistical tests are applied to detect outliers
36、 during the development of the calibration model. Outliers include high leveragesamples (samples whose spectra contribute a statistically significant fraction of one or more of the spectral variables used in themodel), and samples whose reference values are inconsistent with the model.4.4 Validation
37、 of the calibration model is performed by using the model to analyze a set of validation samples and statisticallycomparing the estimates for the validation samples to reference values measured for these samples, so as to test for bias in themodel and for agreement of the model with the reference me

The ongoing validation of estimates produced by analysis of unknown samples using the calibrationmodel should be
40、covered separately (see for example, Practice D6122).5.2 These practices are intended for all users of infrared spectroscopy. Near-infrared spectroscopy is widely used for quantitativeanalysis. Many of the general principles described in these practices relate to the common modern practices of near-
41、infraredspectroscopic analysis. While sampling methods and instrumentation may differ, the general calibration methodologies are equallyapplicable to mid-infrared spectroscopy. New techniques are under study that may enhance those discussed within these practices.Users will find these practices to b
42、e applicable to basic aspects of the technique, to include sample selection and preparation,instrument operation, and data interpretation.5.3 The calibration procedures define the range over which measurements are valid and demonstrate whether or not thesensitivity and linearity of the analysis outp
43、uts are adequate for providing meaningful estimates of the specific physical or chemicalcharacteristics of the types of materials for which the calibration is developed.6. Overview of Multivariate Calibration6.1 The practice of infrared multivariate quantitative analysis involves the following steps
44、:6.1.1 Selecting the Calibration SetThis set is also termed the training set or spectral library set. This set is to represent all ofthe chemical and physical variation normally encountered for routine analysis for the desired application. Selection of thecalibration set is discussed in Section 17,
45、after the statistical terms necessary to define the selection criteria have been defined.6.1.2 Determination of Concentrations or Properties, or Both, for Calibration SamplesThe chemical or physical properties,or both, of samples in the calibration set must be accurately and precisely measured by th
46、e reference method in order to accuratelycalibrate the infrared model for prediction of the unknown samples. Reference measurements are discussed in Section 9.6.1.3 The Collection of Infrared SpectraThe collection of optical data must be performed with care so as to present calibrationsamples, valid
47、ation samples, and prediction (unknown) samples for analysis in an alike manner. Variation in sample presentationtechnique among calibration, validation, and prediction samples will introduce variation and error which has not been modeledwithin the calibration. Infrared instrumentation is discussed
48、in Section 7 and infrared spectral measurements in Section 8.6.1.4 Calculating the Mathematical ModelThe calculation of mathematical (calibration) models may involve a variety of datatreatments and calibration algorithms. The more common linear techniques are discussed in Section 12. A variety of st
49、atisticaltechniques are used to evaluate and optimize the model. These techniques are described in Section 15. Statistics used to detectoutliers in the calibration set are covered in Section 16.6.1.5 Validation of the Calibration ModelValidation of the efficacy of a specific calibration model (equation) requires that themodel be applied for the analysis of a separate set of test (validation) samples, and that the values predicted for these test samplesbe statistically compared to values obtained by the reference method. The statistical tests to be applied f
