Joint Neural Network Interpretation of Infrared and Mass Spectra

Combining gas phase infrared (IR) spectra with mass spectral (MS) data, a neural network has been developed to predict 26 different molecular substructures from multispectral information. The back-propagation procedure has been used for training, including its previously published modification, the flashcard algorithm. Present functional groups have been detected correctly in 86.4% of all cases, compared with 88.4% using only IR and 78.2% using only MS data for training and prediction. For only 8 out of the 26 functionalities does the joint utilization of infrared and mass spectra yield better prediction results, with the greatest improvement being for halogen bond predictions. The prediction of functional group absence results in accuracy of about 95.5% for both IR and IR/MS networks but only 87.1% for a stand alone MS network. Insights have been gained into the suitability of both data sets for neural network training by presenting just IR or MS data to a jointly trained neural network, revealing the am...
