중성자 방사화분석에 의한 한국자기의 분류

Data on the concentration of Na, K, Sc, Cr, Fe, Co, Cu, Ga, Rb, Cs, Ba, La,Ce, Sm, Eu, Tb, Lu, Hf, Ta and Th obtained by Neutron Activation Analysishave been used to characterise Korean porcelainsherds by multivariate analysis. The mathematical approaches employed is Principal Component Analysis(PCA).PCA was found to be helpful for dimensionality reduction and for obtaining information regarding (a) the number of independent causal variables required to account for the variability in the overall data set, (b) the extent to which agiven variable contributes to a component and(c) the number of causalvariables required to explain the total variability of each measured variable.
