Installation

- Extract the rar file in a directory of your choice <directory_path>

- Add to the MATLAB path the following directories (use command addpath, e.g. addpath '<path>'):
    - <directory_path>
    - <directory_path>/BigData
    - <directory_path>/GUI

Please, acknowledge the use of this software by refercing it: "Camacho, J., Pérez, A., Rodríguez, R., Jiménez-Mañas, E. Multivariate Exploratory Data Analysis (MEDA) Toolbox. Chemometrics and Intelligent Laboratory Systems, 2015, 143: 49-57, available at https://github.com/josecamachop/MEDA-Toolbox" Also, please check the documentation of the routines used for more related references.

We would like to thanks the direct or indirect contribution of several colleagues:

• E. Szymanska, G.H. Tinnevelt and T.P.J. Offermans for the Sparse Partial Least Squares (SPLS) routine.
• G. Zwanenburg, H.C.J. Hoefsloot, J.A. Westerhuis, J.J. Jansen and A.K. Smilde for the ANOVA Simultaneous Component Analysis (ASCA) routine.
• E. Saccenti for the Horn's Parallel Analysis to determine the number of Principal Components.
• R. Vitale for the Dray's method and permutation testing method to determine the number of Principal Components.
