Dear chemometrics team!

I am using the latest version of PARADISe (6.0.1) extensively for my research and it is a real pleasure to work with it. Thank you for putting together a software that's so easy to work with.

Since I am handling a lot of data, I would like to update my PC for the last year of my PhD and I was wondering if you have any recommendations, concerning the hardware. I would like to speed up the process of model fitting as much as possible to make my life a little bit smoother.  So in terms of CPU (# of cores, ...), RAM and graphics card, which would be the ideal conditions for the software to run.

Best,

Niklas

Hi Niklas,

Thanks for the kind words, we are glad you find PARADISe useful in your research.

PARADISe only uses CPU resources, so no need for a GPU. If you set the computation setting to parallel, then PARADISe will fit one interval per available CPU simultaneously. So more CPU core are better when fitting many intervals.

Memory-wise, if you have 16 GB or more RAM, that should be more to than sufficient. PARADISe v.6.0.1 only stores the uncompressed data and models for intervals under calculation, so memory consumption should be much less. Of course it depends on the number of samples and width of the intervals.

Jesper
