Getting more efficient – The use of Bayesian optimization and Gaussian processes at the BAMline
(2022)
For more than 20 years, BAM is operating the BAMline at the synchrotron BESSY II in Berlin Adlershof. During this time, the complexity of the setup and the amount of data generated have multiplied. To increase the effectiveness and in preparation for BESSY III, algorithms from the field of machine learning are increasingly used.
After a short introduction to BO and GP, the first example is the automatic alignment of our double multilayer monochromator (DMM).
The second example is the optimization of measurement time in XRF scanning.
Our aim is to develop a simple and inexpensive method for full field X-ray fluorescence imaging.We combine an energydispersive array detector with a coded aperture to obtain high resolut ion images. To obtain the information from the recorded image a reconstruction step is necessary. The reconstruction methods we have developed, were tested on simulated data and then applied to experimental data. The first tests were carried out at the BAMline @BESSY II. This method enables the simultaneous detection of multiple elements,which is important e.g. in the field of catalysis.
With the online coupling (or hyphenation) of chemically-resolved spectroscopy detection with classical size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) it is possible to correlate polymer molecular size with chemical structure in a single in-situ or on-flow measurement. Medium-resolution 1H-NMR (60 MHz) spectroscopy (i.e., “desktop NMR”) and Fouriertransform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) have both been developed as coupled methods (SEC-MR-NMR, SEC-FTIR) for the detection of polymer analytes by monitoring e.g. alkene or carbonyl functionality.1,2 Here, we have investigated the potential for the detection of polymer end groups, using a slightly higher field-strength spectrometer (80 MHz 1H Larmor frequency) and taking advantage of a columnless injection method that provides bulk spectra for reference. End-functionalized polymers were synthesized by reaction of PEG with toluene isocyanate, yielding ,-functionalized polymers with exactly 2 IR- and NMR-detectable functional groups per chain, as proven by MALD-TOF mass spectrometry. We have investigated the sensitivity (limit of detection) and spectral resolution for these functional groups in chloroform, THF, and water. Results have demonstrated a good feasibility for the simultaneous online detection of PEG backbone (M~4000 g/mol) and these end groups at the level of ca. 2 mol%.
