[The application of piecewise direct standardization with SNV in calibration transfer of Raman spectra].

ABSTRACT

To implement calibration transfer between Raman spectrometers, an improved piecewise direct standardization (PDS) is proposed in the present paper. Standard normal variate (SNV) is firstly introduced to reduce the influence of spectral background and intensity corresponding to the master spectrometer and the slave spectrometer; then PDS algorithm is used to eliminate the differences between Raman spectra for a specific sample. Moreover, a new quantitative criterion, called transfer error rate, is proposed to evaluate the performance of calibration model transfer. This improved PDS is applied to Raman spectral analysis of gasoline. The result shows that the proposed algorithm not only needs a small quantity of transfer samples, but also obtains high transfer accuracy and strong model robustness.
