Abstract
This year, to help all of you with time to fill over the Christmas and New Year break, we have decided to offer a data analysis challenge. The problem to be solved is described in the text below and the dataset may be downloaded from the Internet; see box at bottom of page. I would like to receive your answers to the problem described by 20 January 2015 ( gerard.downey@nirnews.com ) and I will forward them to a three-person committee with the necessary expertise to identify a winning entry. The winner will be the person who delivers the model with the highest accuracy and, in the case of a tie, the greatest elegance. Whilst the fame and glory that will come to the winner should be enough, we are pleased to offer a prize of a £200 Amazon Gift Card to help buy some chemometrics books (or whatever else you wish). So give it a try… and have some fun with it!
