Title: Innovations by Xiaolin Chen in NIR Spectrometry
Introduction
Xiaolin Chen is an accomplished inventor based in Beltsville, MD (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of material identification through his innovative patent. His work focuses on utilizing near-infrared (NIR) spectrometry to identify unknown products effectively.
Latest Patents
Xiaolin Chen holds a patent for a "System for identifying materials by NIR spectrometry." This method involves creating a library of absorbance spectra from known products, which are then used to identify unknown products. The process begins with a quick search using clustering techniques to narrow down potential matches. Principal component analysis is applied to generate product score vectors, which are organized into clusters based on their proximity. Hyperspheres are constructed around each vector, and an envelope is created to enclose each cluster. The absorbance spectrum of the unknown product is measured, and its score vector is determined. The method continues until the unknown product score vector is found within a cluster that is not further subdivided, allowing for an exhaustive search to match the unknown product with known products.
