Elimination of Uninformative Variables for Multivariate Calibration
Abstract
A new method for the elimination of uninformative variables in multivariate data sets is proposed. To achieve this, artificial (noise) variables are added and a closed form of the PLS or PCR model is obtained for the data set containing the experimental and the artificial variables. The experimental variables that do not have more importance than the artificial variables, as judged from a criterion based on the b coefficients, are eliminated. The performance of the method is evaluated on simulated data. Practical aspects are discussed on experimentally obtained near-IR data sets. It is concluded that the elimination of uninformative variables can improve predictive ability.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
