QcIRTM
-
Calculates comparison statistics for any two spectra
1. Linear Correlation Coefficient
2. Spearmann’s Rank Correlation
3. Kendal’s Tau
-
Data must be supplied as space delimited ASCII in ascending order from
400 to 4000 wavenumbers; first column is wavenumber and second column is
intensity.
-
The program can handle at most a spectrum from 400 to 4000 wavenumbers
at a resolution of 1.5 wavenumbers (about 2500 data points)
-
Both spectra must be in absorbance or transmittance -- no translation is
provided
-
Data is interpolated so the statistics are calculated at the same wavenumbers
-
The data is in ASCII format so regions can be edited using any convenient
text editor
-
Also calculates the Cross Correlation between two spectra
-
Cross Correlation can provide information about
1. Peak shifts which may be due to instrument variance
2. Peak shifts due to different side groups
3. Harmonic peaks
-
This data can be used for
1. QC/QA
2. Input to LIMS system
3. Research
(Requires Windows 3.1, 95 or NT).
