Expert systems in chromatography. Results of the ESCA project

Abstract The final results of the ESCA project (Expert Systems for Chemical Analysis) are presented. This is one of the major projects in the field of expert systems for chromatography. Expert systems have been developed that cover the important areas of method development in LC. In the last part of the project attention was concentrated on two issues, the study of integration possibilities of the different stand-alone systems and the important aspect of validation and evaluation of the developed expert systems. The integration studies and the results of the validation and evaluation are discussed.
