Spectra selection methods: A novel optimization way for treating...

Near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is now widely used in fluidized bed granulation. However, there are still some demerits that should be overcome in practice. Valid spectra selection during modeling process is now a hard nut to crack. In this study, a novel NIR sensor and a cosine distance method were introduced to solve this problem in order to make the fluidized process into "visualization". A NIR sensor was fixed on the side of the expansion chamber to acquire the NIR spectra. Then valid spect
