(1993). Weighted averaging partial least squares regression (WA-PLS): definition and comparison with other methods for species-environment calibration. ABSTRACT A multivariate calibration method is proposed that relates to correspondence analysis as partial least squares (PLS) relates to principal components analysis. The new method extends and improves the weighted averaging (WA) method for in...

a simple and rapid method for the determination of 137ba isotope abundances in water samples by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (icp-oes) coupled with least-squares support vector machine regression (ls-svm) is reported. by evaluation of emission lines of barium, it was found that the emission line at 493.408 nm provides the best results for the determination of 137ba a...

4 We build connections between envelopes, a recently proposed context for efficient estima5 tion in multivariate statistics, and multivariate partial least squares (PLS) regression. In partic6 ular, we establish an envelope as the nucleus of both univariate and multivariate PLS, which 7 opens the door to pursuing the same goals as PLS but using different envelope estimators. It 8 is argued that...

Acrylamide is probably carcinogenic to humans (International Agency for Research on Cancer, group 2A) with major occurrence in heated, mainly carbohydrate-rich foods. For roasted coffee, a European Union benchmark level of 400 µg/kg acrylamide importance. Regularly, the contents are controlled using liquid chromatography combined tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). This reference method reliab...

Non-invasive blood glucose measurement has attracted much attention in recent years. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is currently used for frequent detection of blood glucose levels. The dynamic spectrum (DS) method, which can eliminate the individual discrepancy, is the development of ordinary NIR spectroscopy. Classic Least Squares (CLS) is usually employed to analyze the spectra. In this wo...

the potential of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (nirs) as a fast method to predict the crude protein (cp) and moisture (m) content in fishmeal by scanning spectra between 1000 and 2500 nm using multivariate regression technique based on partial least squares (pls) was evaluated. the coefficient of determination in calibration (r2c) and standard error of calibration (sec) were 0.95 and 1...

Partial least square (PLS) methods (also sometimes called projection to latent structures) relate the information present in two data tables that collect measurements on the same set of observations. PLS methods proceed by deriving latent variables which are (optimal) linear combinations of the variables of a data table. When the goal is to find the shared information between two tables, the ap...

In this paper, we discuss new formulations of both redundancy analysis (RA) and partial least squares regression (PLS) which clearly show the connection between these two methods. These new formulations also show that RA and PLS regression are the two end points of a continuum approach that we propose to investigate. Moreover, it enjoys very interesting properties which highlight the rational o...
