ABSTRACT
We measured NIR spectrum of VC yinqiao tablets with spectral instrument, analyzed the contents of acetaminophen and vitamin C in the VC yinqiao tablets with principal component analysis (PCA) and Linear Neural Network, and discussed the choice of principal component number and ANN's parameters affecting the network. To compare arithmetic performance, the authors also processed the spectral data with partial least squares and PCA-BP neural network. Compared with other two data process methods, the experiment and the result of data process showed that the PCA-linear neural network possess the best forecasting precision.

The present paper presents a new NIR multi-component analysis method with Artificial Neural Network(ANN) and Partial Least Square Regression(PLS). First, this method divides the concentration range of training samples into some sub-ranges, and respectively computes a PLS correlation model in each sub-range with the sub-range's training samples. Then, the authors classify prediction samples according to its concentration sub-range with ANN and judge which sub-range theprediction sample belongs to. Finally, the authors compute the concentration of prediction component with the PLS correlation model of the sub-range according to ANN. The experiment and the result of data processing show that this method improves the model's applicability, and evidently enhances prediction precision compared to traditional PLS.
