Summary: Real-time monitoring of antibiotics in hospital and pharmaceutical wastewater using UV-Vis spectroscopy combined with chemometric methods is considered a promising method. This study explored the relationship between absorption spectra and antibiotics and investigated the influence of optical path length on the limit of detection (LOD). The study also investigated multiple antibiotics in wastewater and selected wavelengths with better predictability for each antibiotic using chemometric methods.

Summary: In this study, a stability monitor model was established using the multivariate statistical process control (MSPC) method, and a mixed modeling approach combining robust regression (Rob-Reg) and partial least squares regression (PLSR) was employed to eliminate the variability influence of sample and instrument states. The results showed that MSPC effectively monitored the consistency of the same batch samples measured at different times or different batches, and the Rob-Reg method outperformed the PLSR method in predicting the different batches of samples.

Summary: The study presents a general computational method for constructing maps between different cell fates and parametric conditions by systematic perturbations. The method does not require accurate parameter measurements or bifurcations. The maps obtained can help in understanding how systematic perturbations drive cell fate decisions and transitions, providing valuable information for predicting and controlling cell states.

Summary: An analytical strategy was developed for an untargeted metabolomic study on vitreous humor using matrix-assisted laser desorption mass spectrometry, aiming to identify statistically significant parameters related to death time estimation. PCR and PLSR were used to assess PMI, with validation R-2 of about 0.95 and a prediction error of 6 hours.

Summary: Visible and near-infrared (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy technique has been recognized as a cost-effective, rapid, non-destructive alternative to traditional soil physicochemical analysis to estimate soil properties. This study proposes a method to select characteristic wavelengths with optimal spectral resolution to improve the prediction performance. By using a 'two-step' wavelength selection method and the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm, a better prediction accuracy for soil properties was obtained compared to using full-spectra models.

Summary: In this article, the relationship between partial least squares (PLS) and other regularized regression algorithms such as Lasso and ridge regression is explored. A steepest descent alternative to the PLS algorithm is also considered. The emphasis is placed on PLS latent variable analysis and its connections to conjugate gradient, Krylov space, and matrix pseudo-inverse using existing literature. Comparison of PLS with Lasso and ridge regression is conducted in terms of different resolutions along the regularization paths, providing insights into why PLS may not always outperform the other algorithms. A steepest descent PLS is proposed as a regularized regression alternative and evaluated against other algorithms through simulations and an industrial case study.

Summary: This study developed a new method using MALDI-MS and PLS-R to quantitate triacylglycerols in blended oils, allowing simultaneous quantitation of multiple compositions with good limits of detection. The new method enables direct analysis of blended oils, rapid analysis of samples, and accurate quantitation of low-abundance oil compositions and blended oils with similar fatty acid contents, compared to conventional methods.

Summary: This paper presents a methodology to assess the influence of the correlation-covariance structure of measurement errors in online monitoring over the propagation of uncertainties. The study analyzed the effect of auto-correlated and heteroskedastic errors on the estimated probability density function of different environmental indicators. Results showed that the temporal delimitation of hydrographs/pollutographs and the intensity of the autocorrelation have the strongest influence in the propagation of measurement errors.

Summary: This paper explores and compares different deterioration models based on statistical and machine learning approaches, considering two scenarios involving only age or age with other sewer characteristics. The results show that logistic regression models perform better for network management objectives under Scenario 1, while random forest models are more successful in predicting critical conditions at the sewer level under Scenario 2.
