An adaptive extended Gaussian peak derivative reweighted penalised least squares method for baseline correction

Abstract

. Experiments with simulated and measured spectra for methane and ethane were carried out to compare the performance of the different methods. agdPLS performed better than the other methods, with more accurate baseline estimation in low- and high-noise situations. Especially when the spectrum contained high noise, complex baselines and overlapping peaks, the agdPLS method performed significantly better than other methods. Moreover, agdPLS was computationally efficient. Results of actual spectral experiments showed that the proposed agdPLS method could be effective for baseline correction of spectra which, in turn, improved qualitative and quantitative spectral performances.
