Practical Guide To Chemometrics, Second Edition

Book Description

The limited coverage of data analysis and statistics offered in most undergraduate and graduate analytical chemistry courses is usually focused on practical aspects of univariate methods. Drawing in real-world examples, Practical Guide to Chemometrics, Second Edition offers an accessible introduction to application-oriented multivariate methods of data analysis and procedures that are highly beneficial to solving a variety of problems using analytical chemistry and statistics. Rather than overshadowing the concepts with theoretical background, this book uses application-oriented examples to illustrate how chemometrics techniques can be applied to complex scenarios with multiple and dynamic variables. The book presents a diverse selection of topics that include sampling, modeling, experimental design, calibration, pattern recognition, data analysis techniques, algorithms, and error. This second edition has been completely revised to feature new chapters on principal component analysis, self-modeling curve resolution, and multi-way analysis methods. It includes expanded material on normal distributions, sampling theory, signal processing, and digital filtering. Embracing the growing role of chemometrics in some of the latest research trends, such as quantitative biology, bioinformatics, and proteomics, this book also identifies several areas for future development and applications. Practical Guide to Chemometrics, Second Edition continues to offer a reliable source of useful information in a style that is accessible to all levels of students, professionals, and researchers involved in analyzing scientific data.

Book Description

The contributions to this special volume were selected in order to show present trends in the field of bioprocess monitoring and estimation. Established conventional methods are critically discussed and non-conventional ones introduced. Two papers focus on more fuzzy approaches such as electronic noses or advanced chemometric techniques. One contribution illustrates the high potential with the example of cephalosporin production. Three contributions dare to "look" inside the cells, one by the analysis of (microscopic) images, one by trying to estimate the so-called physiological state, and the third by analyzing the metabolic network. This shows how sophisticated (bio)chemical as well as mathematical analytical tools result in better understanding of living systems and bioprocesses.

I don't know this edition, but the 2nd Edition is great!.......2005-08-10

I don't know this edition, but I think the 2nd edition is great! I'm a Ph.D. chemist, but wanted to learn more statistics, and learn it better. I found this book concise, and I thought the authors explained fundamental concepts and did so with admirable clarity. Me and many of my colleagues consider it our best reference on statistics!

Basic stats, just more complicated!.......2005-07-10

The book overall is a highbrow explanation of elementary statistics, applied to a chemist's world. It does not do a very good job of explaining your base statistics, so I would recommend only people that have had some true statistics courses and background use this book. It provides good examples from an analytical chemist's point of view, but beyond that, the book is useless.

Informative but broad.......2000-03-15

An informative book that covers a wide range of topics in chemometrics. About a third of the book deals with statistics, giving a good review to signal processing, ANOVA, t-tests, etc. For someone that wanted a book dealing only with chemometrics, it is disappointing to find a big portion of the book dedicated to basic statistics. A lot of topics are covered but not all in much detail. For example, there are 3 pages on SIMCA, 4 pages on PCR and PLS. There are more details when you get into the sections on neural networks and fuzzy theory. The examples are OK but not always easy to follow if you are not familiar with a particular method because steps are skipped. This book is a great overview of chemometrics-useful to refresh memories or get new ideas for data treatment- but needs to be supplemented with additional resources to learn more any one particular method. Fortunately the author includes a "general reading" section at the end of each chapter which provides references for books with more details.

Book Description

Spreadsheets provide one of the most easily learned routes to scientific computing. This book uses Excel®, the most powerful spreadsheet available, to explore and solve problems in general and chemical data analysis. It follows the usual sequence of college textbooks in analytical chemistry: statistics, chemical equilibria, pH calculations, titrations, and instrumental methods such as chromatography, spectrometry, and electroanalysis. The text contains many examples of data analysis, and uses spreadsheets for numerical simulations and testing analytical procedures. It treats modern data analysis methods such as linear and nonlinear least squares in great detail, as well as methods based on Fourier transformation. It shows how matrix methods can be powerful tools in data analysis, and how easily these are implemented on a spreadsheet. It describes in detail how to simulate chemical kinetics on a spreadsheet. It also introduces the reader to the use of VBA, the macro language of Microsoft Office, which lets the user import higher-level computer programs into the spreadsheet.

Excellent book setting out applications in Chemistry using Excel. Well chosen examples embracing spectroscopy, chromatography, electrochemistry, kinetics and acid-base theory illustrate the ease of minipulation of data via Excel. The section on Fourier Transform I really liked, and this is followed by a good coverage of noise filtering and deconvolution.

This is a book which wold like to be a text book and not a popular one. No CD or disk with the exampels is provide. Only the macros could be downloaded from the web. This book contain many exampels. Most of the exampels are in the sort of instructions i.e. 1. open a new spreadsheet 2. enter the label.. 3.In row 11, starting with cell A11 enter the labels pH, [H+]....

15.anchor the graph on cell b1,... etc.
