Comparison of methods for the processing of voltammetric electronic tongues data

摘要

We are making a numerical comparison of various preprocessing strategies for dealing with data from voltammetric electronic tongues in order to reduce the high dimensionality of the response matrices. Different modelling tools are presented and briefly described. We then compare combinations of four preprocessing strategies (principal component analysis, fast Fourier transform, discrete wavelet transform, voltammogram-windowed slicing integral) with four modelling alternatives (principal component regression, partial least squares regression, multi-way partial least squares regression, artificial neural networks) by employing data from a voltammetric bioelectronic tongue, an array formed by enzyme-modified biosensors and applied to the discrimination and quantification of phenolic compounds.
