Abstract: An innovative class of methods are discussed for the analysis of functional data observed over multidimensional non-Euclidean domains, such as two-dimensional manifolds and non-convex volumes. The methods include functional principal component analysis and functional partial least squares and can handle sparse and partially observed functional data, as well as massive datasets. Challenging applications are illustrated to environmental and life sciences problems.
