<b>Multiblock Data Fusion in Statistics and Machine Learning</b><p><b>Explore the advantages and shortcomings of various forms of multiblock analysis, and the relationships between them, with this expert guide </b><p>Arising out of fusion problems that exist in a variety of fields in the natural and life sciences, the methods available to fuse multiple data sets have expanded dramatically in recent years. Older methods, rooted in psychometrics and chemometrics, also exist. <p><i>Multiblock Data Fusion in Statistics and Machine Learning: Applications in the Natural and Life Sciences</i> is a detailed overview of all relevant multiblock data analysis methods for fusing multiple data sets. It focuses on methods based on components and latent variables, including both well-known and lesser-known methods with potential applications in different types of problems. <p> Many of the included methods are illustrated by practical examples and are accompanied by a freely available R-package.
