There is basically no change to input data and the training-data set is prepared by a special fitting method in order to make it treatable for spectral methods. In the working phase, new input data can be processed multivariatly by the system with good generalising properties. In combination with a Wavelet transformation (WT) for noise- and data reduction, the System performs fast and efficiently in classifying parameterised curves, such as Raman spectra. \itemrv{~} \itemcc{} \itemut{machine learning; multi-class classification; cluster identification} \itemli{doi:10.1007/978-3-642-24806-1\_9} \end
