The Swedish chemist, Svante Wold, is considered to have been the first to use the word chemometrics, in Swedish in 1972 (Forskningsgruppen for Kemometri) (Wold 1972), and then in English two years later (Wold 1974). The American chemist and mathematician Bruce R. Kowalski presented in 1975 a first overview of the contents and aims for a new chemical discipline chemometrics...

The arrival of computers in every chemical laboratory has made possible the use of multivariate statistical analysis and mathematics in the analysis of measured chemical data. Sometimes, the methods were inadequate or only partially suitable for a particular chemical problem, so handling methods were modified or new ones developed to fit the chemical problem. On the basis of these elements, common to every field of chemistry, in 1974 a new chemical science was identified chemometrics, the science of chemical information. In the same year, Bruce Kowalski and Svante Wold founded the Chemometrics Society, which since then has been spreading information on multivariates in chemistry all over the world. 

The name chemometrics was first coined by the young Swedish scientist SVANTE WOLD in the early 1970s. His cooperation with the American analytical chemist BRUCE R. KOWALSKI, who at the time was working on methods for pattern recogni-...

The notation chemometrics was introduced in 1972 by the Swede Svante Wold and the American Bruce R. Kowalski. The foundation of the International Chemometrics Society in 1974 led to the first description of this discipline. In the following years, several conference series were organized, for example. Computer Application in Analytics (COMPANA), Computer-Based Analytical Chemistry (COBAC), and Chemometrics in Analytical Chemistry (CAC). Some journals devoted special sections to papers on chemometrics. Later, novel chemometric journals were started, such as the Journal of Chemometrics (WUey) and Chemometrics and Intelligent Laboratory Systems (Elsevier).
