Over the past 30 years, there has been an emphasis on the quality, safety and nutritional proprieties of food products and thus an increasing interest by food producers to reveal frauds and to assure consumers regarding the quality and provenance of their products. In particular, olive oil has become more popular as a healthy food in contrast...

Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, coupled with multivariate data analysis, is proposed as a rapid and effective analytical method for evaluating the quality of pernambuco (Caesalpina echinata Lam.) wood for making bows for stringed instruments. For this purpose, a set of 30 pernambuco sticks were ranked based on their suitability for making...

The evaluation of the predictive ability of a model, is an essential moment of all the chemometrical techniques. So it must be performed very carefully. However, in the case of selection of relevant variables (an essential step in the case of data sets with many, frequently thousands, variables) the selection is generally performed using all...

The information content of visible spectra has been evaluated, by means of some selected chemometrical techniques, for its ability to trace the geographical origin of extra virgin olive oils coming from several Mediterranean regions. Special attention was paid to extra virgin olive oil produced in West Liguria, a North Italy region which leans...

Representation or compression of data sets in the wavelet space is usually performed to retain the maximum variance of the original or pretreated data, like in the compression by means of principal components. In order to represent together a number of objects in the wavelet space, a common basis is required, and this common basis is usually...

CAIMAN (Classification and Influence Matrix Analysis), a new classification technique, is here analyzed and modified to produce a number of possible classification and class modeling techniques with good performances in that regards both the prediction ability and the efficiency of the class models. These techniques are based on the addition to...
