This book offers a detailed application guide to XploRe - an interactive statistical computing environment. As a guide it contains case studies of real data analysis situations. It helps the beginner in statistical data analysis to learn how XploRe works in real life applications. Many examples from practice are discussed and analysed in full length. Great emphasis is put on a graphic based understanding of the data interrelations. The case studies include: Survival modelling with Cox's proportional hazard regression, Vitamin C data analysis with Quantile Regression, and many others.

(XploRe is a combination of classical and modern statistic...)
XploRe is a combination of classical and modern statistical procedures with sophisticated, interactive graphics. Forming the basis for statistical analysis, research, and teaching, its purpose lies in the exploration and analysis of data, as well as in the development of new techniques, with the statistical methods provided by various libraries. In addition, it is a high-level, object-oriented programming language, allowing you to incorporate your own methods and so extend the environment. Further, an automatic HTML converter ensures the smooth integration of quantlets and libraries into the help system. This Academic Edition is designed for installation on a single PC, and has the same program functionality as the full version, with only some size restrictions and not all Quantlibs are provided on the CD-ROM.

It is generally accepted that training in statistics must include some exposure to the mechanics of computational statistics. This learning guide is intended for beginners in computer-aided statistical data analysis. The prerequisites for XploRe - the statistical computing environment - are an introductory course in statistics or mathematics. The reader of this book should be familiar with basic elements of matrix algebra and the use of HTML browsers. This guide is designed to help students to XploRe their data, to learn (via data interaction) about statistical methods and to disseminate their findings via the HTML outlet. The XploRe APSS (Auto Pilot Support System) is a powerful tool for finding the appropriate statistical technique (quantlet) for the data under analysis. Homogeneous quantlets are combined in XploRe into quantlibs. The XploRe language is intuitive and users with prior experience of other sta tistical programs will find it easy to reproduce the examples explained in this guide. The quantlets in this guide are available on the CD-ROM as well as on the Internet. The statistical operations that the student is guided into range from basic one-dimensional data analysis to more complicated tasks such as time series analysis, multivariate graphics construction, microeconometrics, panel data analysis, etc. The guide starts with a simple data analysis of pullover sales data, then in troduces graphics. The graphics are interactive and cover a wide range of dis plays of statistical data.

(Applied Nonparametric Regression brings together in one p...)
Applied Nonparametric Regression brings together in one place the techniques for regression curve smoothing involving more than one variable. The computer and the development of interactive graphics programs has made curve estimation popular. This volume focuses on the applications and practical problems of two central aspects of curve smoothing: the choice of smoothing parameters and the construction of confidence bounds. The methods covered in this text have numerous applications in many areas using statistical analysis. Examples are drawn from economics--such as the estimation of Engel curves--as well as other disciplines including medicine and engineering. For practical applications of these methods a computing environment for exploratory Regression--XploRe--is described.

The author has attempted to present a book that provides a non-technical introduction into the area of non-parametric density and regression function estimation. The application of these methods is discussed in terms of the S computing environment. Smoothing in high dimensions faces the problem of data sparseness. A principal feature of smoothing, the averaging of data points in a prescribed neighborhood, is not really practicable in dimensions greater than three if we have just one hundred data points. Additive models provide a way out of this dilemma; but, for their interactiveness and recursiveness, they require highly effective algorithms. For this purpose, the method of WARPing (Weighted Averaging using Rounded Points) is described in great detail.
