Abstract
We report on the development and application of a random forest regressor that not only identifies but also estimates the relative concentrations of substances (one explosive and two simulants), both in one-substance and two-substance samples. Performance of the regressor is quantified using Receiver Operating Characteristics and the performance is contrasted with that of a simple Spectral Angle Mapping technique that worked well on single-substance samples [1-3].
