Whether the purpose is the comparison of the performance of different experimental procedures or the optimization of a given methodology under various experimental conditions, a consistent numerical sensitivity parameter is required in order to judge about the real improvement obtained from various experimental strategies. Analytical figures of merit are an integral part of official protocols of analysis, as documented in international standards. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) has set sensitivity definitions for various calibration scenarios. What is even more worrying, the plainly extrapolated expressions to data arrays with higher number of modes appeared to lead to a serious underestimation of true sensitivities.application/pdf5358–5378engopenAccessMultivariate Calibration with ANNFigures of MeritGrain Quality ControlpublishedVersionOlivieri, Alejandro CésarUniversidad Nacional de RosarioAmerican Chemical SocietyAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0)
