Abstract.
A multivariate curve resolution method, "GENERALIZED RANK ANNIHILATION
METHOD (GRAM)", is discussed and tested with simulated and experimental
data. The analysis of simulated data provides general guidelines concerning
the condition for
uniqueness of a solution for a given problem. The second-order emission-excitation
spectra of human and animal dental calculus
deposits were used as an experimental data to estimate the performance
of the above method. Three porphyrinic spectral profiles, for both human
and cat, were obtained by the use of GRAM.
