Spectrum Nearest Neighbor
Description
Spectrum Nearest Neighbor is the smallest distance in the score plots
between two spectra.
Use
Check, which spectra have big deviation. Similar small distances indicate
good repeatability and reproducibility.
Method
PCR / PLS / Cluster (CLU) / SIMCA
Matrices ID
63
Tip
The Spectrum Nearest Neighbor vs. Spectra scatter plot can help to reduce
redundancy with deleting some spectra with very small distance or to find
outliers with selecting spectra with high distance.
Details
The distance is calculated according the selected secondary PCs.
