After deriving a sequential counterpart of the conventional linear mixing model, the proposed approach recasts the linear unmixing problem into a linear state-space estimation framework. Under Gaussian noise and state models, the estimation of the pure spectra can be efficiently conducted by resorting to Kalman filtering. Interestingly, it is shown that this Kalman filter can operate in a lower-dimensional subspace to lighten the computational burden of the overall unmixing procedure. Experimental results obtained on synthetic and real Raman data sets show that this Kalman filter-based method offers a convenient trade-off between unmixing accuracy and computational efficiency, which is crucial for operating in an on-the-fly setting. The proposed method constitutes a valuable building block for benefiting from acquisition and processing frameworks recently proposed in the microscopy literature, which are motivated by practical issues such as reducing acquisition time and avoiding potential damages being inflicted to photosensitive samples.

The risks of false conformity decisions were evaluated using Monte Carlo method simulations across four scenarios, each reflecting different correlation conditions. The results of the study focus on evaluating pharmaceutical equivalence between ranitidine hydrochloride tablets from two manufacturers. The tablets were tested for three parameters: average weight, active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) assay, and uniformity of dosage units. The measured values were within the regulatory specifications for both medicines A and B. Four scenarios of metrological correlation were assessed: #1 – actual correlation from shared analytical steps, #2 – correlation between parameters within the same medicine, #3 – correlation between generic and reference medicines, and #4 – uncorrelated parameters. The study revealed that correlations significantly affect total and combined risk values. The correlations between different parameters of the same medicine affect the total risk values, while the correlations between generic and reference medicines for a given parameter influence the combined particular risk values. Correlations between parameters of the same medicine affect total risk values, while correlations between generic and reference medicines impact combined particular risk values. Both types of correlations significantly influence combined total risk values, making metrological correlations crucial in pharmaceutical equivalence evaluations.

Few studies explore combinations of spectral preprocessing, modeling algorithms, and resampling techniques. This study presents the first SOC estimation using Vis-NIR spectroscopy in the Red River Delta, Vietnam. We assessed estimation performances incorporating fifteen preprocessing techniques, four regression models, and three resampling methods to identify the most effective strategies. Standard Normal Variate (SNV) emerged as the top preprocessing technique, while Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) demonstrated the highest accuracy with minimal discrepancies between calibration and validation. Regarding resampling methods, repeated cross-validation (repeatedcv) proved most robust, with simple cross-validation as an alternative.
