Abstract
When we learned about association measures and regression methods in the previous chapters, we gained a first glimpse into multivariate statistics. Multivariate methods allow for the joint study of statistical variables and their relationships between each other with the goal of capturing a complete picture of the data. In machine learning, this approach is essential, as predictions are based on a large number of features and their statistical characteristics.
