| Popis: | Overlapping peaks in Raman spectra complicate the presentation, interpretation, and analyses of complex samples. This is particularly problematic for methods dependent on sparsity such as multivariate curve resolution and other spectral demixing as well as for two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS), multisource correlation analysis, and principal component analysis. Though software-based resolution enhancement methods can be used to counter such problems, their performances often differ, thereby rendering some more suitable than others for specific tasks. Furthermore, there is a need for automated methods to apply to large numbers of varied hyperspectral data sets containing multiple overlapping peaks, and thus methods ideally suitable for diverse tasks. To investigate these issues, we implemented three novel resolution enhancement methods based on pseudospectra, over-deconvolution, and peak fitting to evaluate them along with three extant methods: node narrowing, blind deconvolution, and the general-purpose peak fitting program Fityk. We first applied the methods to varied synthetic spectra, each consisting of nine overlapping Voigt profile peaks. Improved spectral resolution was evaluated based on several criteria including the separation of overlapping peaks and the preservation of true peak intensities in resolution-enhanced spectra. We then investigated the efficacy of these methods to improve the resolution of measured Raman spectra. High resolution spectra of glucose acquired with a narrow spectrometer slit were compared to ones using a wide slit that degraded the spectral resolution. We also determined the effects of the different resolution enhancement methods on 2D-COS and on chemical contrast image generation from mammalian cell spectra. We conclude with a discussion of the particular benefits, drawbacks, and potential of these methods. Our efforts provided insight into the need for effective resolution enhancement approaches, the feasibility of these methods for automation, the nature of the problems currently limiting their use, and in particular those aspects that need improvement.
