A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Multivariate data appear in all scientific fields of investigation and the study of multivariate analysis has become central to the discipline of data science. Not only is it part of the statistical education curriculum but it is also an essential tool for applied scientists in their research work.

An Introduction to Multivariate Data Analysis clearly explains how to successfully reduce a large and complex set of data with many variables to a manageable new formulation where information, structure and underlying patterns are more clearly revealed.

Features include:

·Coverage of all major multivariate methods

·Emphasis on motivation and the practical application of concepts

·Worked examples throughout

·End of chapter exercises to build student confidence.

This book is an accessible and comprehensive introduction to the subject of multivariate analysis, and will appeal to all those students and researchers who would benefit from the use of multivariate methods to analyse data from their experiments and studies. A basic knowledge of univariate statistics and matrix algebra is assumed.

Revue de presse

It is common for students on their first introduction to multivariate statistics to be overwhelmed by the large number of different techniques and indeed different names for essentially the same technique. For such students, and for those who need multivariate methods in their research work, this book would be a very useful purchase.

(Short Book Reviews Publication of the International Statistical Institute 2005-10-01)

The book is suitable for university courses in statistics and other disciplines where statistics plays a major role. It appeals to researchers as well who would benefit from the use of multivariate methods to analyze data from their experiments ... The book is informally written, it clearly explains the key ideas of the topics without going too deeply into the mathematics.
