Abstract

In this study, we investigate the use of convolutional neural networks (CNN) for near infrared (NIR) calibration. We propose a unified CNN structure that can be used for general multivariate regression purpose. The comparison between the CNN method and the partial least squares regression (PLSR) method was done on three different NIR datasets of spectra and lab reference values. Datasets are from different sources and contain 6998, 1000 and 415 training and 618, 597 and 108 validation samples, respectively. Results indicated that compared to the PLSR models, the CNN models are more accurate and less noisy. The convolutional layer in the CNN model can automatically find the suitable spectral preprocessing filter on the dataset, which significantly saves efforts in training the model.
