Abstract
The present invention is a method for improving the estimation of physical properties of a material, based on the infrared spectrum of the material, by concatenating additional data obtained from other measurement techniques to the infrared spectrum to fill the voids in the spectral data resulting from a lack of sensitivity by infrared spectrometers to trace compounds in the material. The augmented spectral data then is used to produce a calibration model for estimating the physical properties of the material.
