Analysis and identification of ancient glass based on correlation analysis

Abstract

 This paper focuses on the analysis and identification of ancient glass components. The correlation analysis of weathered or unweathered glass surface with glass type, decoration and color was conducted using spss software, and further analyzed by chi-square test, which concluded that weathered surface showed negative correlation with glass type. The glass was also classified one by one to study the statistical pattern of the chemical composition with and without weathering, and using factor analysis, the weight of each chemical composition was derived, and then the content of the composition before weathering was predicted.
