Package to integrate chemometrics in scikit-learn pipelines

chemotools

Welcome to Chemotools, a Python package that integrates chemometrics with Scikit-learn.

Note

Since I released Chemotools, I have received a fantastic response from the community. I am really happy for the interest in the project 🤗. This also means that I have received a lot of good feedback and suggestions for improvements. I have been intensively working on releasing new versions of Chemotools to address the feedback and suggestions. If you use Chemotools, make sure you are using the latest version (see installation), which will be aligned with the documentation.

👉👉 Check the latest version and make sure you don't miss out on cool new features.

👉👉 Check the documentation for a full description on how to use chemotools.

Description

Chemotools is a Python package that provides a collection of preprocessing tools and utilities for working with spectral data. It is built on top of popular scientific libraries and is designed to be highly modular, easy to use, and compatible with Scikit-learn transformers.

If you are interested in learning more about chemotools, please visit the documentation page.

Benefits:

• Provides a collection of preprocessing tools and utilities for working with spectral data
• Highly modular and compatible with Scikit-learn transformers
• Can perform popular preprocessing tasks such as baseline correction, smoothing, scaling, derivatization, and scattering correction
• Open source and available on PyPI

Applications:

• Analyzing and processing spectral data in chemistry, biology, and other fields
• Developing machine learning models for predicting properties or classifying samples based on spectral data
• Teaching and learning about chemometrics and data preprocessing in Python

Installation

Chemotools is distributed via PyPI and can be easily installed using pip:

pip install chemotools

Upgrading to the latest version is as simple as:

pip install chemotools --upgrade

Usage

Chemotools is designed to be used in conjunction with Scikit-learn. It follows the same API as other Scikit-learn transformers, so you can easily integrate it into your existing workflow. For example, you can use chemotools to build pipelines that include transformers from chemotools and Scikit-learn:

from sklearn.preprocessing import StandardScaler
from sklearn.pipeline import make_pipeline

from chemotools.baseline import AirPls
from chemotools.scatter import MultiplicativeScatterCorrection

preprocessing = make_pipeline(AirPls(), MultiplicativeScatterCorrection(), StandardScaler(with_std=False)) 
spectra_transformed = preprocessing.fit_transform(spectra)

Check the documentation for more information on how to use chemotools.
