Human activity today produces a large number of pollutants that end up in the environment, such as soil, water, and airborne particles. The first objective this work is to introduce new third-order multivariate calibration approach called self-weighted alternating quadrilinear decomposition (SWAQLD) for analysis organic pollutant fluorene (FLU) different water systems. One simulated two real fo...

A fiber laser using a thulium-doped ZBLAN gain medium was used to generate laser radiation simultaneously at 1461, 1505 and 1874 nm, with > 5 mW output power at each of the wavelengths. The laser was used to quantify the near-infrared absorption of liquid water in acetone. Additionally, near-infrared spectra were recorded using a broad band source and were interpreted using parallel factor (PAR...

Water extractable organic matter (WEOM) is a very mobile and reactive soil OM fraction, critical in the translocation of carbon (C) from soils to other environmental compartments. Transformations WEOM due heating can have implications not only at local scale, but places far away location event. However, their accurate characterization costly when analyzing large number samples. The objectives t...

Parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) is a powerful tool for detecting latent components in human electroencephalogram (EEG) the time-space-frequency domain. As an essential parameter, number of should be set advance. However, any component selection method already proposed literature became rule thumb. Existing studies have demonstrated methods’ performance on artificial data with simplified stru...

This paper presents an alternative method, called as parallel factor analysis (PARAFAC) with a continuous wavelet transform, to analyze of brain activity in patients with chronic pain in the time-frequency-channel domain and quantifies differences between chronic pain patients and controls in these domains. The event related multiple EEG recordings of the chronic pain patients and non-pain cont...
