Abstract

This disclosure includes methods for designing a simplified Integrated Computational Element (ICE) and for optimizing a selection of a combination of ICE designs. A method for fabricating a simplified ICE having one or more film layers includes predicting an optimal thickness of each of the one or more film layers of the simplified ICE using a neural network. A method for recalibrating the fabricated ICE elements for system implementation is also disclosed. The disclosure also includes the simplified ICE designed by and the ICE combination selected by the disclosed methods. The disclosure also includes an information handling system with machine-readable instructions to perform the methods disclosed herein.
