Chemometric tutorials and
courses in the Internet
-a review
Main areas of rewiev
• Contents
– which fields of chemometrics are covered
– how thorougly the areas are covered
– practical examples
• Usability
• Visual appearance
VICIM
• Virtual Institute of Chemometrics and
Industrial Metrology
– http://www.vicim.com/
– Terminology, e-learning (require registration)
– Tutorials on chemometrics and qualimetrics
• PCR theory, comparative study on methods (PCR,
MLR, PLS etc.) in .pdf – format
– Multivariate Calibration and General
Chemometrics toolbox available
VICIM
• Available e-material quite limited in
multivariate methods
• Wide selection of tutorials as links to
articles
• Pdf-file of 74 page could be considered too
long (especially for on-line usage)
VICIM appearance
The University of Akron
• http://ull.chemistry.uakron.edu/chemom
etrics/index.html
• Basic statistics, DoE, regression methods,
non-linear univariate regression,
multivariate methods (PCA, MLR, PCR,
PLS)
• Classification (SIMCA, K-nearest
neighbors)
• Neural networks
The University of Akron
• A lot of different tutorials based on the
lecture presentations.
• Slideshows advance in a clear manner.
• Slideshows could have links to more
spesific areas for skipping, e.g., unwanted
examples.
