A four-step strategy is described which is aimed
at optimizing the separation parameters of the chromatographic
fingerprint of herbal medicines. In the optimization procedure,
a model is built to predict the retention time of components.
The proposed model shows good retention prediction potency with
an average relative deviation of 1.78%. The grid search method
is used in optimizing gradient parameters. In addition, an iterative
procedure is adopted to further improve the prediction accuracy
of the gradient retention time and the quality of the chromatogram.
The whole optimization process has been validated by real samples.
