ASD’s own Dan Shiley is quickly becoming the final word on chemometrics in mining in his
columns at SpectroscopyNow.com.
In his latest column, Creation of a Quantitative Data Set, he explores the importance of creating quantitative prediction models and their application in mineral analysis.
Connecting all the dots for readers, Shiley recognizes the importance of data set development for creation of the multivariate model. He dubs it, “the first step towards quantitative analysis,” which is combined with the size, type and constituents one is looking to measure.
Shiley states that by using the techniques smarter, one can even rescue dwindling budgets.
