At a time when computerized laboratory automation is producing a da
ta explosion, chemists are turning to applied mathematics and
statistics for the tools to extract useful chemical information
from data. This rush to find applicable methods has lead to a
somewhat confusing body of literature that represents a barrier to
chemists wishing to learn more about chemometrics. The confusion
results partly from the mixing of chemical notation and
nomenclature with those of statistics, applied mathematics and
engineering. Additionally, in the absence of collaboration with
mathematicians, chemists have, at times, misused data analysis
methodology and even reinvented methods that have seen years of
service in other fields. The Chemometrics Society has worked hard
to solve this problem since it was founded in 1974 with the goal of
improving communications between the chemical sciences and applied
mathe matics and statistics. The NATO Advanced Study Institute on
Chemometrics is evidence of this fact as it was initiated in
response to a call from its membership for advanced training in
several areas of chemometrics. This Institute focused on current
theory and application in the new field of Chemometrics: Use of
mathematical and statistical methods, Ca) to design or select
optimal measurement procedures and experiments; and Cb) to provide
maximum chemical information by analyzing chemical data. The
Institute had two formal themes and two informal themes."
