The RPD myth

Esbensen, Kim H.; Geladi, Paul; Larsen, Anders

Abstract

For a long time, the Mythbusters have harboured a grudge about the ubiquitous use of and blind reliance on the RPD statistic as a tell-all index regarding the quality of any NIR calibration. This feeling is substantiated by the many reviews we, and many others, have performed for the NIR community and other journals over more than the last decade. There are apparently very few reservations regarding this institution: if only RPD≥3... all is well with prediction performance.
