Multiview embedding with environmental covariates
Abstract
Same as for Columbia River competition. Again we had no time to think about things in detail, but hope to have time this year to delve into the results a bit.

Description
All code is available at https://github.com/andrew-edwards/sockeyePrize, though
is not easily usable by anyone else at the moment and there are various
improvements we would make. Most of the covariates were taken from our pacea R
package and we used our pbsEDM R package for the calculations. Attached .pdf is our example rendered
R Markdown file for Chilko, but might not make much sense to others. Final prediction is given at the very end.
