Abstract
The standardisation of eight partial least squares calibration models for the prediction of diesel oil properties was studied. The models were developed using spectra acquired on a laboratory accousto-optic tunable filter (AOTF) near infrared (NIR) spectrophotometer (with a quartz cuvette) and transferred to another AOTF-NIR spectrophotometer (with a fibre-optic probe) and to an Fourier transform NIR spectrometer, both designed for on-line application. Thirteen standardisation methods, using different approaches, were studied: standardisation by the pretreatment of spectra, (piecewise) direct standardisation and (piecewise) reverse standardisation. The reverse approach proved to be the best strategy to transfer the models.
