At Eigenvector we’ve been teaching classes in chemometrics and machine learning since our founding more than 30 years ago, and I’ve been doing them slightly longer than that. Most of our classes are taught with equations that describe the various models we cover and how they are computed. (The exception of course is our Chemometrics […]

Applications ranged from developing plants with increased levels of nutrients to understanding cancer metabolism. Metabolomics experiments, however, produce extremely large and complex data sets. Consequently, the ultimate success of any experiment in metabolomics hinges on the software […]
