Abstract

Several curve resolution methods were compared in their performance of identification and quantification of overlapping peaks. These resolution methods are heuristic evolving latent projections (HELP), sub-window factor analysis (SFA), and orthogonal projection resolution (OPR). In this paper, HELP, SFA and OPR with the rank map produced by evolving factor analysis (EFA) or fixed size moving window-evolving factor analysis (FSMW-EFA) were applied to the simulated and experimental data. The resolved results were compared qualitatively and quantitatively. In addition, the further comparison was carried out with the results obtained from multivariate curve resolution-alternate least square (MCR-ALS) by using the initial estimates provided by EFA.
