Configural Polysampling: A Route to Practical Robustness (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics)

1 review

Wiley-Interscience, 1991

robustness with an unfamiliar name
Configural polysampling is a methodology that is not only unfamiliar to the general public but also to many in the statistical community. It is as methodology that attempts to identify robust estimators by showing their performance for a variety of distributions. Morgenthaler and Tukey are the editors but this is not a collection of papers but rather a course text on the topic with several ...

Addison Wesley, 1977

A classic, still relevant
In the preface, Tukey writes, "this book ... exists to expose its readers and users to a considerable variety of techniques for looking more effectively at one's data." It succeeds remarkably well and is still relevant: after over 40 years, many of the techniques still have not been incorporated in commercial software and some of those that have (such as box-and-whisker plots and robust ...

Data Analysis and Regression: A Second Course in Statistics

Addison Wesley, 1977

An old classic, outdated, but still with remarkable relevance to current practice!
This is an old classic that has become somewhat obsolete because of modern computers. It was written in a time-period where calculations and data analysis were done by hand. There are, however, many aspects of the philosophy and approach to data analysis and statistics communicated in this text that are quite deep, and that are, unfortunately, omitted from many modern texts. In terms of what ...

Fundamentals of Exploratory Analysis of Variance (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics)

Wiley-Interscience, 1991

The analysis of variance is presented as an exploratory component of data analysis, while retaining the customary least squares fitting methods. Balanced data layouts are used to reveal key ideas and techniques for exploration. The approach emphasizes both the individual observations and the separate parts that the analysis produces. Most chapters include exercises and the appendices give selected percentage points of the Gaussian, t, F ...

Understanding Robust and Exploratory Data Analysis

1 review

Wiley-Interscience, 2000

Outstanding treatment
This book is a classic. Even though it was written prior to the personal computer revolution, it's relevance is strong. The authors are fantastic at giving the reader a true feel for the analytical tools and approaches. This may not be a how-book for today, since many of the tools are now pre-programmed into software packages, but it is an excellent resource for developing the "intuitive" feeling ...
