β¦ Synopsis
Modern x-ray Γuorescence instruments are highly sophisticated analytical tools. However, the interpretation software available with such instruments generally provides for little more than a computerized look-up table with reliance on operator experience to provide plausible identiΓcation of spectral features. The system described (AXIS) overcomes some frequently encountered problems by appropriate application of heuristic interpretation (expert system), fuzzy logic and pattern recognition. Spectral noise and instrumental inaccuracies are handled by generation and propagation of uncertainty using fuzzy logic algorithms, and fuzzy c-means pattern recognition furnishes the system with the ability to develop background knowledge from previously recorded similar spectra. The analytical results are presented graphically in the form of a hierarchical data tree, and the software can form the basis of a fully automated XRF interpretation system.

An automated scheme is described which locates the centers of cross peaks in two-dimensional correlation spectra, even under conditions of severe overlap. Double-quantum-filtered correlation (DQ-COSY) spectra have been investigated, but the method is also applicable to TOCSY and NOESY spectra. The s
