Five years of Heritage Science: from aborigine cave paintings to the Domesday book and Bayeux tapestry and to Dorothy’s ruby red slippers via van Gogh’s colours, Magritte’s missing quarters, and Qing calligraphy, with the sights, sounds, smells and taste of the past
“…In 1998, Oliver et al first defined the metabolome 5 leading rather rapidly to metabolomics/metabonomics where huge quantities of multivariate data, primarily from NMR and MS, could be obtained. Heritage Science 6 emerged about a decade later, when instruments such as portable spectrometers could be applied to artwork to also develop multivariate data matrices.…”
The origins of chemometrics in quantitative analytical chemistry is contrasted to the emerging growth points of statistically based hypothesis testing and generation such as in applications to metabolomics and heritage science.

“…In previous articles, we have primarily introduced PCA as a method for visualisation, and this is probably its most common application in modern chemometrics, especially in areas such as metabolomics, 1 heritage science 2 or food science 3 where there is a need to explore large multivariate datasets, often involving spectroscopy or chromatography and huge numbers of variables.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
