Calibration transfer is a subtle issue in the practical application of near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy technique. In this paper, a novel method to calibration transfer based on neighborhood preserving embedding (CTNPE) for correcting spectral differences was proposed. As a manifold learning method, neighborhood preserving embedding (NPE) can not only capture the nonlinear manifold structure, but also retain the linearity and show good generalization ability. Since this approach can reveal low dimensional manifold structure in high dimensional ...
