Automating Calibrations for Optical Spectroscopy

This talk represents a summary of a multi-industry consortium established eight years ago to re-evaluate how the calibration process in optical spectroscopy could be managed more efficiently.  The idea is to enable a shift from current practices to approaches that take better advantage of the computational power and some newer concepts supplied by research into machine learning algorithms.  The result is a solution that is not disruptive of any legacy instruments or software already in place and lessens the workload rather than laying on additional requirements. The approach uses all readily available components and can be assembled easily for any specified purpose.  The use of commercial components reduces the cost of deployment and assembling pieces in a plug-and-play manner minimizes the impact of any previous selections of hardware and software.
