A novel method based on GC-MS, near-infrared (NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy combined with chemometrics was established to simultaneously analyze differential volatile components (DVCs) of herb samples. Herein, Florists Chrysanthemum was adopted as the representative sample. Through the introduction of Automatic data analysis workflow (AntDAS) and one-class partial least squares discriminant analysis (O-PLSDA) model, five kinds of terpenes and five kinds of alcohols were efficiently screened as DVCs.
