Survey of analytical spectral data source and related data compilation activities

Computer identification of infrared spectra by correlation-based file searching

“…In such procedure s , spectra are ordinari ly encoded in some fashion and a file-searching algorithm is used to find the best match between the spectrum of an unknown substance and one in a collection of spectra of known compounds . File searching procedures have been reviewed in several recent articles (1)(2)(3)(4)(5).…”

Ultraviolet spectrometry

“…An article on sources of spectra data, "Survey of Spectral Data Sources and Related Data Compilation Activities," includes publications of ultraviolet spectra data (95). The article lists continuing compilations with a few one-time publications listed in an appendix.…”

Computer searching of infrared spectra using peak location and intensity data

“…These include pattern recognition techniques (9,10) as well as file-searching methods (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). Generally available file-searching approaches for searching infrared spectra (18,19) are mainly based on the large data base provided by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). However, the ASTM data does not include intensity information.…”
