A new wavelength interval selection procedure, moving window partial least-squares regression (MWPLSR), is proposed for multicomponent spectral analysis. This procedure builds a series of PLS models in a window that moves over the whole spectral region and then locates useful spectral intervals in terms of the least complexity of PLS models reaching a desired error level. Based on a proposed theory demonstrating the necessity of wavelength selection, it is shown that MWPLSR provides a viable approach to eliminate the extra variability generated by non-composition-related factors such as the perturbations in experimental conditions and physical properties of samples. A salient advantage of MWPLSR is that the calibration model is very stable against the interference from non-composition-related factors. Moreover, the selection of spectral intervals in terms of the least model complexity enables the reduction of the size of a calibration sample set in calibration modeling. Two strategies are suggested for coupling the MWPLSR procedure with PLS for multicomponent spectral analysis: One is the inclusion of all selected intervals to develop a PLS calibration model, and the other is the combination of the PLS models built separately in each interval. The combination of multiple PLS models offers a novel potential tool for improving the performance of individual models. The proposed procedures are evaluated using two open-path Fourier transform infrared data sets and one near-infrared data set, each having different noise characteristics. The results reveal that the proposed procedures are very promising for vibrational spectroscopy-based multicomponent analyses and give much better prediction than the full-spectrum PLS modeling.
