Simple functions for plotting linear calibration functions and estimating standard errors for measurements according to the Handbook of Chemometrics and Qualimetrics: Part A by Massart et al. There are also functions estimating the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ). The functions work on model objects from - optionally weighted - linear regression (lm) or robust linear regression ('rlm' from the 'MASS' package).

Main functions

Essential functionality

  • inverse.predict(inverse.predict.lm, inverse.predict.rlm, inverse.predict.default)
    Predict x from y for a linear calibration
