Amsterdam) This book collects together 45 papers covering varioJ!. aspects of the analysis of multiway data arrays. Mathematical properties of three-way and multiway arrays are investigated and their utilization for the statistical interpretation of complex data sets is emphasized. The volume is divided into 5 chapters. A specific introductton to each chapter has been prepared by the Editorial Board. Different metl-ads of analysis are considered including: longitudinal and multimode factor anA!ysis, generalized canonical analysis, multidimensional sealing, multiway classification techniques, model based approaches. The reader can find many o,iginal contributions to this area, as well as interesting applications in several fields of research such as psychology, economics, sociology and bio-meditine.
