Near-infrared reflectance spectra and octane numbers of 60 gasoline samples. Each NIR spectrum consists of log(1/reflectance) measurements at 401 wavelengths, in 2-nm intervals from 900 nm to 1700 nm. We thank Prof. John Kalivas for making this data set available.
A data frame comprising
a numeric vector of octane numbers for the 60 samples.
