Chemometrics - Methodology

Plan the experiment yourself

• The best results are obtained when you have an intimate knowledge of your experimental conditions.

• Use statistically designed experiments when possible.

• Review the literature for similar efforts.
  • Well defined methodologies exist for some disciplines, e.g. Parsons and Wolff for pattern recognition and Malinowski and Howery for factor analysis.

• Consider the analysis goal when choosing your chemical techniques and variables to measure.
