Description
Analyzing observed or measured data is an important step in applied sciences. The recent increase in computer capacity has resulted in
a revolution both in data collection and data analysis. An increasing number of scientists, researchers and students are venturing into
statistical data analysis; hence the need for more guidance in this field, which was previously dominated mainly by statisticians.
This
handbook fills the gap in the range of textbooks on data analysis. Written in a dictionary format, it will serve as a comprehensive reference
book in a rapidly growing field. However, this book is more structured than an ordinary dictionary, where each entry is a separate, self-contained
entity. The authors provide not only definitions and short descriptions, but also offer an overview of the different topics. Therefore,
the handbook can also be used as a companion to textbooks for undergraduate or graduate courses.
1700 entries are given in alphabetical
order grouped into 20 topics and each topic is organized in a hierarchical fashion. Additional specific entries on a topic can be easily
found by following the cross-references in a top-down manner. Several figures and tables are provided to enhance the comprehension of
the topics and a list of acronyms helps to locate the full terminologies. The bibliography offers suggestions for further reading.
