摘要: Computer simulations have been used in order to investigate an objective procedure determine the number of principal factors when factor analysis is for solving analytical problems AES and XPS. The indicator (IND) function has investigation. simulated results show that IND could be detecting sampling misalignment problems. Furthermore, S/N ratio, severe overlap spectra relative importance various involved can limit sensitivity correct factors.
