Von der hinteren Coverseite

A classic comprehensive sourcebook, now fully updated

For more than four decades An Introduction to Multivariate Statistical Analysis has been an invaluable text for students and a resource for professionals wishing to acquire a basic knowledge of multivariate statistical analysis. Since the previous edition, the field has grown significantly. This updated and improved Third Edition familiarizes readers with these new advances, elucidating several aspects that are particularly relevant to methodology and comprehension.

The Third Edition features new or more extensive coverage of:

• Patterns of Dependence and Graphical Models?a new chapter
• Measures of correlation and tests of independence
• Reduced rank regression, including the limited-information maximum-likelihood estimator of an equation in a simultaneous equations model
• Elliptically contoured distributions

Incorporation of the advice and comments of the readers of the first two editions as well as extensively classroom-tested techniques and calculations makes An Introduction to Multivariate Statistical Analysis, Third Edition, more valuable than ever for both professional statisticians and students of multivariate statistics.
