Abstract
Considering the advantages of variational mode decomposition (VMD) in mathematical decomposition and extreme learning machine (ELM) in data modeling, a new regression model named variational mode decomposition unfolded extreme learning machine (VMD-UELM) is introduced for spectral quantitative analysis of complex samples. Firstly, mode components (uk) are obtained by decomposing spectra in VMD. Then the mode components are unfolded into an extended matrix. Ultimately, a quantitative model is built between the matrix and the target values by ELM. Efficiency of VMD-UELM is validated by quantitative analysis of hemoglobin, diaromatics and Panax notoginseng (PN) in blood, fuel oil and adulterated herb datasets. Results show that VMD-UELM model demonstrates better or similar performance compared with partial least squares (PLS) and ELM. Therefore, VMD-UELM is an efficient approach for spectral quantitative analysis.
