Böcker av Wolfgang Karl Hardle

Now in its sixth edition, this textbook presents the tools and concepts used in multivariate data analysis in a style accessible for non-mathematicians and practitioners. Each chapter features hands-on exercises that showcase applications across various fields of multivariate data analysis. These exercises utilize high-dimensional to ultra-high-dimensional data, reflecting real-world challenges in big data analysis.For this new edition, the book has been updated and revised and now includes new chapters on modern machine learning techniques for dimension reduction and data visualization, namely locally linear embedding, t-distributed stochastic neighborhood embedding, and uniform manifold approximation and projection, which overcome the shortcomings of traditional visualization and dimension reduction techniques.Solutions to the book's exercises are supplemented by R and MATLAB or SAS computer code and are available online on the Quantlet and Quantinar platforms. Practical exercises from this book and their solutions can also be found in the accompanying Springer book by W.K. Härdle and Z. Hlávka: Multivariate Statistics - Exercises and Solutions.

Introduction to Statistics

This textbook on computational statistics presents tools and concepts of univariate and multivariate statistical data analysis with a strong focus on applications and implementations in the statistical software R.

The authors present tools and concepts of multivariate data analysis by means of exercises and their solutions. The last part introduces a wide variety of exercises in applied multivariate data analysis.

It naturally splits into two parts: The first part is intended for undergraduate students majoring in mathematics, statistics, econometrics or biometrics whereas the second part is intended to be used by master and PhD students or researchers.

This book presents numerous exercises with solutions to help the reader better understand different aspects of modern statistics. It features applications with R and Matlab code that show how to practically use the methods.
