Description for Handbook for Applied Modeling: Non-Gaussian and Correlated Data
paperback. This compact, entry-level Handbook equips applied practitioners to choose and use core models for real-world data - with R and SAS. Num Pages: 350 pages. BIC Classification: PBT. Dimension: 253 x 177. .
Designed for the applied practitioner, this book is a compact, entry-level guide to modeling and analyzing non-Gaussian and correlated data. Many practitioners work with data that fail the assumptions of the common linear regression models, necessitating more advanced modeling techniques. This Handbook presents clearly explained modeling options for such situations, along with extensive example data analyses. The book explains core models such as logistic regression, count regression, longitudinal regression, survival analysis, and structural equation modelling without relying on mathematical derivations. All data analyses are performed on real and publicly available data sets, which are revisited multiple times to show differing ... Read more

Reviews for Handbook for Applied Modeling: Non-Gaussian and Correlated Data
'This book is a guide to modeling and analyzing non-Gaussian and correlated data. There is clearly a need for such a book to help less experienced data scientists ... The data sets and models are well explained, and the limitations of each type of model on the various data sets is illustrated by frequent plots.' Peter Rabinovitch, MAA Reviews 'This ... Read more
