DESCRIPTION:Educators: CRA-W team\n\nDate: 14 - 18 October 2024\n\nLocation
 : Gembloux\, Belgium\n\nContents:\n\nParticipants will become familiar wit
 h the vibrational spectroscopic technology and statistical concepts used i
 n Chemometric applications.\nMost attention will be given to the ideas und
 erlying the different techniques and methods and their application mainly 
 in the agronomical sector. Theoretical considerations and equations will b
 e limited to what is needed to have sufficient insight to properly use the
  techniques. Most of the examples will be related to application in the fo
 od and feed sectors\, but the scope is broader.\nNIR\, MIR and Raman techn
 iques include the use of classical benchtop instrumentation as well as mor
 e advanced systems\,as systems combined with microscopy and Hyperspectral 
 Imaging\, or the most recent handheld devices.\nChemometrics methods inclu
 de exploratory tools such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA)\, calibrat
 ion based methods as Partial Least Squares (PLS) and discriminant techniqu
 es such as Support Vector Machines (SVM) among others as well as the figur
 es of merit within the quantitative/qualitative calibration model\, topics
  related to advanced pre-processing\, calibration transfer and how to vali
 date/judge model quality.\n\nLearning goals:\nThe goal of the course is to
  teach participants about NearInfrared (NIR)\, Mid-Infrared (MIR) and Rama
 n technologies and how to perform basic multivariate analysis/Chemometrics
 .\n\nPrerequisites:\nKnowledge of basic concepts of mathematics (in partic
 ular linear algebra) and statistics is required. Some notions of analytica
 l chemistry and multivariate statistics are a plus.\n\nKeywords: vibration
 al spectroscopic method\, NIR\, MIR\, Raman\, NIR microscopy\, hyperspectr
 al Imaging\, fluorescence\; advanced Chemometric methods\n\nTools:\nThe co
 urse material will be made available in form of a USBkey containing all th
 e slides and datasets used as examples during the training.
