NOSE Lectures Series Volume 1

NOSE Lecture Series, Volume I: Data evaluation

This first volume of the NOSE lecture series on the topic of data evaluation is a collection of lectures given in the framework of three schools on the general topic of electronic noses. Within the European Commission Network of Excellence on artificial olfactory sensing “NOSE” these educational events aimed at a comprehensive overview on the various sciences and technologies involved in the interdisciplinary effort of detecting and classifying odours, analyte mixtures, and volatile constituents of natural and synthetic products with multi-sensor arrays. An imperative necessity for such task is the evaluation of sensor data in order to make use of the information gathered by chemical sensor instrumentation. This collection of introductions to different approaches in data evaluation is not a textbook but rather we intended to create an overview and reference collection on the variety of data treatment approaches found in the state of the art analytical and organoleptic multi-sensor devices. We hope the lectures presented herein can contribute to the general understanding of electronic noses and also present an introduction to concepts gaining importance far beyond sensor arrays.

NOSE Lecture Series, Volume II: Standardisation

The second volume of the NOSE Lecture Series is devoted to the topic of standards for chemical sensors and sensor systems. Two main points were in the focus of the NOSE II activities in this field during the period of the NOSE II project: adaptation of the existing IEEE 1451 standard to chemical sensor systems and elaboration of an own proposal for a standard data format for measurement data.
Standardisation in the field of chemical sensor instrumentation is an issue, which has raised more and more interest in the NOSE community in the recent years. The NOSE standardisation activities are a major step on this direction.
We hope to support the use of standards in the community by this activity, as the use of standards is beneficial for developers, manufacturers and users. Volume II of the lecture series summarises the activities and results of two NOSE II working groups and is a collection of lectures given at the 4th NOSE II Short Course in 2005 and reports by two NOSE II working groups.
