NEW FEATURES
Model Building
- SVM
- LWR
Scores Plots
- KNN Score Distance metric available in scores plots of PLS, PCR, and PCA (knnscoredistance).
- Improved handling of class modifications.
Preprocessing
- Kaiser Optical Systems HoloReact method importer to create preprocessing from band-area methods (hrmethodreadr).
- GLSW/EPO: add "meancenter" option to better handle orthogonalization to specific clutter matrix, plus improved help (glsw).
- Improved memory and speed performance for various preprocessing methods.
- Custom SpectraQuant Filtering algorithm for background correction (available only through Hamilton Sundstrand)
Importers/Exporters
- Experiment File Importer - reads file containing filenames and reference measurement data and imports the corresponding files and data into Analysis GUI. Automatically assigns the data to X and Y and to calibration and validation blocks (experimentreadr).
- Hamilton Sundstrand PIONIR PDF file importing added (pdfreadr).
- Horiba JY file importer performance and support for large files improved (hjyreadr).
- SPC file importer reads file comments (spcreadr).
- Support for combining multiple DataSets. Selecting multiple items in Workspace Browser provides access to new "combine" menu option.
- XY file importing performance improved (xyreadr).
- XML importing/exporting support and performance improved (parsexml / encodexml).
- Improved support for manual parsing of CSV files (xclreadr).
- Export Data to Analect Spectral Files (ASF) (writeasf).
- Export Data to simple CSV file format for non-DataSet objects (writecsv).
- Export regression Models to CPSA32/PC80 .tbl format (available only through Hamilton Sundstrand).
Other Enhancements
- Plot Controls: Full access to all items in a DataSet (no longer limited by number of rows or columns)
- BoxPlot: new box plot function (PLS_Toolbox only) to allow better coexistance with Statistics Toolbox (R) from The Mathworks (boxplot)
- Toolbars: Toolbars are now present on most interfaces and plots to make standard actions and interaction between GUIs easier.
- TrendTool: Improved interactivity and functionality.
- Model Cache: Improved performance and support for new information in models and DataSets.
- InfoBox: New File/Save menu option.
- DataSet Object: Add ability to log user comments to history.
- DataSet Object: Add uniqueID field and support.
NEW FUNCTIONS AND FILES
