Abstract In the quantitative analysis of alkane gas mixtures by infrared spectroscopy, the manual calibration sample preparation process is complex (requiring precise control of parameters such as multi-component gas concentration, ambient temperature, and gas pressure), and operational deviations can easily lead to the deviation of spectral data from the calibration concentration, resulting in anomalous samples. The traditional single anomaly detection method is difficult to handle complex anomaly patterns in high-dimensional and nonlinear data effectively. To address this problem, this paper proposes a hybrid anomaly detection framework that synergizes kernel martens distance (KMD) and K-means clustering, which innovatively combines kernelized feature mapping with dynamic density clustering, thereby overcoming the matrix singularity problem and the limitation of insufficient sensitivity to local anomalies in high-dimensional sample scenarios. In this paper, we use the kernel Marginal Distance (KMD) to construct a nonlinear high-dimensional feature space, quantify the anomaly degree of the spectral-concentration mapping relationship through the covariance matrix, and set a 95% confidence threshold (χ²_{0.95}) to screen potential anomaly candidate samples. Combined with the K-means algorithm, the training set is divided into seven optimisation sub-clusters (determined based on the elbow rule), and a dynamic threshold is set to reject anomalous samples by the standard deviation of the distance from the test sample to the nearest centre of mass. The final dual-threshold joint decision-making is achieved through the logical and (AND) mechanism. The experiment was carried out using a German Bruker Tensor27 spectrometer to collect 938 sets of samples (wavelength 2.5～25 μm, resolution 4 cm^-1), with methane and ethane component gases as the focus of analysis. The model was validated by a partial least squares (PLS) regression model and compared with the traditional Marginal Distance (MD) method. The results showed that after excluding the anomalous samples, the relative error (MRE) of methane concentration prediction decreased from 38.29% to 18.77%, which was 11.52 percentage points more than that of the MD method (30.44%). The MRE of ethane decreased from 54.51% to 26.03%, which was 13.39 percentage points more than that of the MD method (39.42%), and the accuracies of the model analyses were both increased by more than 50%. The proposed method not only theoretically breaks the bottleneck of anomaly detection in high-dimensional spaces, but also demonstrates its effectiveness in the quantitative analysis of infrared spectra of complex gas mixtures in practical applications. Compared to traditional methods, the hybrid detection framework of kernel Martens distance and K-means clustering demonstrates significant robustness in handling nonlinear and multidimensional data. The method offers a reliable and effective solution for cleaning anomaly data in the quantitative analysis of infrared spectra of alkane gas mixtures.
