About this title

Synopsis

Researchers involved in the collection of scientific data often end up with multivariate systems. When several variables are simultaneously measured on the same experimental unity, they are usually correlated, and the pattern formed is often too difficult for the human mind to grasp. This text discusses in detail many proven techniques for finding the dimensionality of the pattern and unravelling the information contained in the complexity of variables. The book includes exercises and solutions as well as 41 data sets taken from various areas of application, such as engineering, manufacturing, medicine, social science and economics.
