Annual meeting of the SEIO Working Group in Multivariate Analysis and Classification (AMyC),
Barcelona, October 20–21, 2016.

The II International Workshop on Proximity Data, Multivariate Analysis and Classification will take place during October 20-21, 2016 in Barcelona (Spain). It is organized by the Multivariate Analysis and Classification Spanish SEIO Group AMyC (http://amyc.seio.es/). The Spanish Group of Multivariate Analysis and Classification is a Working Group of more than 50 researchers from all the Spanish universities. Every year, the Working Group organizes a meeting to promote the communication between its members and between them and other researchers, and to contribute to the development of the Multivariate Analysis and Classification field and related problems and applications. The I International Workshop on Proximity Data, Multivariate Analysis and Classification took place in Granada, October 2014.

The founder of the Spanish Group AMyC is Carles M. Cuadras. This second edition of the workshop is especially dedicated to give a tribute to Dr. Cuadras for his relevant contributions to multivariate analysis and his trajectory within the working Group AMyC.

The topics of interest comprise any related problem to Multivariate Analysis and Classification both from a theoretical or a computational point of view, and their applications. It also includes problems related to unsupervised or supervised statistical learning related to big data analysis.
