Optimization and Empirical Modeling of HG-ICP-AES Analytical Technique through Artificial Neural Networks

An artificial neural network technique has been applied to the optimization of a hydride generation-inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (HG-ICP-AES) coupling for the determination of Ge at trace levels. The back propagation of errors net architecture was used. Experimental parame...

Sumario:An artificial neural network technique has been applied to the optimization of a hydride generation-inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (HG-ICP-AES) coupling for the determination of Ge at trace levels. The back propagation of errors net architecture was used. Experimental parameters and their relationship have been studied, obtaining a surface response of the system. The results and optimization aspects achieved with the neural network approach have been compared to the "one variable at time" and SIMPLEX methods.
