See full feature list below ⬇️

📊 Modeling and statistics

Sequential Quantification and Classification modeling:  Apply a unique quantification model to each class in sequence after a classification model. This can provide higher accuracy for quantification analysis in relevant use cases.

Model performance statistics: Model table and Obs vs. calc plot now includes RMSE, RPD and R2 also for training, test and CV for comprehensive model comparison (for CV when using full cross validation).

Statistics for Quantification results: Add absolute, relative, and percentage error metrics to the Statistics (properties) descriptor, see Statistics (properties)

View spectral band model statistics: Show spectral plots for model loadings, weights, importance, and SNR in the model wizard

Custom Python Interpreter Selection: Added option to select a custom Python interpreter, offering greater flexibility when training a custom prediction model or using any Python function.

Cross-validation settings panel in model wizard: Select full- or partial-cross validation, number of CV groups and exclusion protocol.

🔎 User Interface and Interaction

Create class category from Identifier and Group name: Use sample Identifier column or group name to generate a class category column. 

Evince shortcut for object level exploration: Open the object level data in Evince through the Explore tab in Breeze for expanded visualization possibilities.

Selection av samples in Table using classes: Select samples in Table based on descriptor classes.

Spectral plot colored by class in Model wizard: Spectral data is colored by class for each spectrum, making it easier to see which bands are different for different classes.

Pixel Explore Upgrades: More options in Pixel Explore, including changing the visualization of your spectra to raw data, reflectance or absorbance, view wavelength names of RGB bands, and a new zoom toolbar.

View model train/test info in table: Display of a train/test column in the model descriptors table. Train / Test

💾 File Support, Data and Image Import and handling

Single Spectra data import: Import regular spectroscopy data files (i.e. non image data) from a range of file formats like txt, csv, sli, and asd.

Multiple image import: Simplified import of multiple image files located in different folders and directories using the data import wizard.

Flexible Model Application: Apply models to data with different, fewer, or more wavelengths (i.e. spectral bands) than those used in the training set.

More flexibility for applying references: Import dark and white reference after the data import to do data conversion to reflectance and absorbance. 

Apply conversion to images with only dark or only white reference: Imported images with only white or dark reference available can now be converted.

Set calibrated reflectance targets values: Select vector file or write manual value on Study, Group or Measurements level via right-click.

Save multiple images as .png: Facilitate saving all images in a study or group with a right-click as a .png image of selected descriptor output.
