The Best Chemometrics Software Just Keeps Getting Better!

Eigenvector announces new versions of its leading software

Eigenvector Research is pleased to announce new versions of our two most popular toolboxes, PLS_Toolbox and MIA_Toolbox, and their stand-alone versions, Solo and Solo+MIA. All four were officially released Nov. 3.

While the additions and improvements to PLS_Toolbox and Solo are substantial, the Multivariate Image Analysis packages MIA_Toolbox and Solo+MIA recieved the most substantial makeover. New features and improvements to the MIA tools include:

• New primary interface for organizing, editing and viewing multivariate images
• New Texture analysis interface
• New spatial image filters
• Edge detection, image erosion and morphing tools
• Improved memory and speed performance
• Solo+MIA available for 64-bit operating systems for improved ability to work with very large (1G+) images

Enhancements to PLS_Toolbox and Solo include:

• New faster and more accurate Direct Scores PLS (DSPLS) algorithm
• Automatic bias and slope correction for regression models
• Improved automatic component selection in PCA
• Selectivity ratio statistic for variable selection
• New file import and export options for Hamilton Sundstrand, Horiba JY and Analect instruments systems
• New GUI for Correlation Spectroscopy
