Publisher's Synopsis
This text emphasizes applications of classical and modern regression with examples that illustrate nearly all the techniques discussed. Applications have been selected from physical sciences, engineering, biology, management science and economics. Emphasis is also placed on concepts with a blend between illustrations using real data sets and mathematical and conceptual development. An abundance of exercises using real data are included as well as more conceptual or theoretical exercises.;The new edition has expanded chapters two, three, five and seven with new topics illustrated with real data sets and annotated with computer printouts, and the number of exercises have now been approximately doubled.;This book should be of interest to third year undergraduates and postgraduates in statistics, physical sciences, engineering, biology and business.
