Using abundances for 15 elements (allStar file), we will study the variation of their 15-D distribution in the 3D XYZ space, as a function of stellar population (halo, thin disk, thick disk); we will use Extreme Deconvolution method to quantify the 15-D distributions, see astroML Book Figures 6.11 and 6.12
