Database system coupled to chemometric algorithms that consequently stores spectra and related data

QResidualsLimit (res, confidence)
%Function QResidualsLimit
%
%This function calculates the limit for Q residuals of a PCA decomposition.
%
%Syntax:
%   limit = QResidualsLimit (res, confidence)
%
%Input parameters:
%   res: matrix of residuals
%   confidence: confidence limit for the Q residuals, standard: 0.95 (=95%)
%
%Output parameters:
%   limit: the limit for the Q residuals, higher Q-residuals are considered
%      as outliers
