I didn't follow. If you take a high dimensional data set and project it are you not going to find patterns? In fact, let me ask it differently. Are there any projections that don't find patterns?

Or a follow up question: we’re there different patterns found than the periodic table? And what then do they say about the elements?
Right. He mentions a few but they again seem to be things chemists were aware of. I really wanted to see the patterns chemists didn't think of instead of the algorithms recovering what was already known.
