Quantitative analysis of ToF-SIMS data of a two organic compound mixture using an autoencoder and simple artificial neural networks.

Both the supervised and unsupervised methods based on ANN, which were employed in regulating nonlinear relationships, were effective in the quantitative and qualitative analyses of the ToF-SIMS data of the two organic compound mixture. Regarding qualitative analysis, both ANN-based methods indicated specific ions from the molecules in the sample.
