[Study on the robust NIR calibration models for moisture].
The differences in sample moisture affect the robustness of NIR model obviously. In the present paper, three approaches, including preprocessing spectra, selecting wavelength, and setting up global calibration, were investigated to analyze the feasibility of setting up robust calibrations based on the protein content of wheat with different moistures. It has been found that with only spectral pretreatment method it fails to obtain satisfactory results, which can not remove the effects caused by moisture difference. Both selecting wavelengths and developing global calibration model proved to be good approaches for developing robust NIR calibration, yet developing global calibration is better. The mechanisms of the three different methods were also analyzed theoretically.
