A glossary of concepts and terms in chemometrics
Project: 2008-002-1-500 (see [1])
This wiki is designed to allow the creation of a list of terms in chemometrics that are consistent and have the support of a substantial cohort of the chemometrics community. Please register and then contribute to the entries. In the wiki spirit all entries are editable. If you believe an entry is wrong, or not the best, please replace with a better one and explain on the discussion page why you have made the change.
At some point the project team will take some of the terms and collate them into a Recommendation for publication in Pure and Applied Chemistry (PAC).
Please note, terms in this wiki are not IUPAC endorsed until they are published as recommendations in PAC
For an explanation of the IUPAC project see the paper in Analytica Chimica Acta (Hibbert, D. B.; Minkkinen, P.; Faber, N. M.; Wise, B. M., IUPAC project: A glossary of concepts and terms in chemometrics. Anal. Chim. Acta 2009, 642, (1-2), 3-5.) To learn about the IUPAC project system see [2]
The glossary starts with definitions of Chemometrics
What to do (briefly)
To find an entry search (left) for it
If you want to add a new entry please create it (See Mediawiki Handbookfor details)
If you want to change a definition completely, please move the old definition to the discussion page and add your reasons for changing it.
The definition of a term should use a template called Template:Definition. When you create a new term start the page (which should have only the title you linked to) with {{subst:Definition}} and then save it. This will populate the page with the common format. Then go back into the term (edit tab) and enter the definition, notes, examples and references. Note that a term can be linked from any number of terms.
Sections
We have removed the list of sections that were on this page, as it seemed too complicated. There are still some sections that contain lists of terms and these might be useful. We recommend you just create the terms you are interested in and make suitable links. - Data Preprocessing(Section) - Experimental Design (Section) - Optimization(Section) - Pattern recognition (Section) - Sampling (Section)
