NoiseGen - Analytical Measurement Error Simulation Software

Abstract Here we present analytical measurement noise simulation software in the form of a MATLAB® toolbox. Through the use of this easy-to-use software, multivariate noise structures that imitate those observed in real analytical measurements can be simulated for use in evaluating data processing procedures. In its current form, NoiseGen can simulate iid normal noise, multiplicative noise (shot noise, or any other proportionality), multiplicative offset noise, baseline offset noise, and independent and proportional power law noise. An overview of the simulation algorithm is given and some examples using both the command-line and graphical user interface are presented.
