Theoretical Foundations of Functional Data Analysis, with an Introduction to Linear Operators (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics)
Synopsis
Functional data is data in the form of curves that is becoming a popular method for interpreting scientific data. "Statistical Analysis of Functional Data" provides an authoritative account of function data analysis covering its foundations, theory, methodology, and practical implementation. It also contains examples taken from a wide range of disciplines, including finance, medicine, and psychology. The book includes a supporting Web site hosting the real data sets analyzed in the book and related software. Statistical researchers or practitioners analyzing functional data will find this book useful.

From the Back Cover
Provides essential coverage of functional data analysis and related areas.
This book provides a uniquely broad compendium of the key mathematical concepts and results that are relevant for the theoretical development of functional data analysis (FDA).
The self-contained treatment of selected topics of functional analysis and operator theory includes reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces, singular value decomposition of compact operators on Hilbert spaces and perturbation theory for both self-adjoint and non self-adjoint operators. The probabilistic foundation for FDA is described from the perspective of random elements in Hilbert spaces as well as from the viewpoint of continuous time stochastic processes. Nonparametric estimation approaches including kernel and regularized smoothing are also introduced. These tools are then used to investigate the properties of estimators for the mean element, covariance operators, principal components, regression function and canonical correlations. A general treatment of canonical correlations in Hilbert spaces naturally leads to FDA formulations of factor analysis, regression, MANOVA and discriminant analysis.
Key features:
- Provides a concise but rigorous account of the theoretical background of FDA
- Introduces topics in various areas of mathematics, probability and statistics from the perspective of FDA
- Presents a systematic exposition of the fundamental statistical issues in FDA
- Develops all material from first principles, assuming no prior knowledge of linear operator or FDA
This book will provide a valuable reference for statisticians and other researchers interested in developing or understanding the mathematical aspects of FDA. It is also suitable for a graduate level special topics course.
