Welcome
to the Kaji Competition for the 2008 ANISG Conference. We
apologise for the delay in making the information and data available.
There are two data files provided – a calibration file containing
spectra and reference values (157 samples), and a validation file
containing spectra only (30 samples).
The files were created in ISI format and the spectra collected on a
Foss 6500 instrument. We have also converted the files to ASCII
and JCAMP format.
The reference data are designated as attributes A, B and C. This
is a “real world” data set, and you may notice an
occasional “bad” spectrum.
The idea is to create calibration equations for all three attributes
using the calibration file, and then predict these attributes on the
validation file (spectra only). Calibration statistics should be
provided. The judges have access to the reference data on the
validation file, and will assess each entrant’s predicted values
against the reference values. Any comments on the spectra, the
reference values and the structure of the sample population will be
welcome.
The file names are as follows:
Calibration file:
K08CAL.CAL (ISI format)
K08CAL.DAT (ASCII format)
K08CAL.JCM (JCAMP format)
K08CAL.CFL
Validation file:
K08VAL.NIR (ISI format)
K08VAL.DAT (ASCII format)
K08VAL.JCM (JCAMP format)
K08VAL.CFL
