Intended for anyone needing to apply statistical analysis to a large variety of science and engineering problems, this book shows how to use SPSS, MATLAB, STATISTICA and R for data description, statistical inference, classification and regression, factor analysis, survival data and directional statistics. The 2nd edition includes the R language, a new section on bootstrap estimation methods and an improved treatment of tree classifiers, plus additional examples and exercises.
