February 24, 2014 – Symbion System releases Symbion QT, Version 2.0 with an expanded user interface and an enhanced optimization feature. The user interface provides automatic selection of training, validation, and test data sets, automatically populates the constituent matrix, and has an enhanced optimizer for automatic pre-filtering of spectral regions. Version 2.0 provides the full capability of modern chemometrics without requiring specialized training. The QT Model Builder employs a step by step workflow approach which guides beginner and expert alike through the process of assembling the data needed to build and evaluate calibrations. The resulting calibrations are fully validated and documented and ready for deployment. The workflow approach is based directly on the way that expert chemometricians handle these tasks. The entire QT package has been developed from the ground up to provide a completely natural, non-intrusive development environment which frees the user to focus directly on meeting project requirements without worrying about menu trees, keystroke sequences, or software syntax.
