Chemometrics in Spectroscopy ? Linearity in Calibration: Quantifying Nonlinearity, Part II (PDF)
At this point in our series dealing with linearity, we have determined that the data under investigation do indeed show a statistically significant amount of nonlinearity, and we have developed a way of characterizing that nonlinearity. Our task now is to come up with a way to quantify the amount of nonlinearity, independent of the scale of either variable, and even independent of the data itself.
