Combining machine learning and analytical models may yield the best of both worlds. Machine learning models are flexible and powerful, but they often function as black boxes with high data requirements, and they do not provide insight into the underlying physical or data-generating phenomena. On the...
Biological and biotechnological systems are often very complex, containing a large number (hundreds to thousands) of distinct chemical compounds. The use of mass spectrometry (MS) coupled to chromatographic separation (GC, LC, IC, FFF) allows for sensitive and robust quantification (ng/ml and below) of...
