  • Publication number: 20220051074
    Abstract: A quantitative spectral data analysis and processing method based on deep learning is provided. Pre-processing is not required to be performed on data in the disclosure. Effective information and background information may be learned from raw spectral data, and accuracy of quantitative spectral analysis is improved. In the disclosure, high-dimensional features are extracted from spectral data through three convolutional layers. Convolution kernels of 1×1 are adopted in the second layer, which reduces the dimensionality and the amount of calculation. Further, convolution kernels of three different sizes are adopted in the third convolutional layer, which learns features of different sizes hidden in the spectral data from the raw spectral data. In this disclosure, data is not pre-processed, and the original data may be directly processed. This method has a high generalization ability when a spectral noise distribution of a test set is different from that of a training set.
