Multivariate statistics
Organiser
Abstract
Multivariate statistical procedures form an important component of an undergraduate programme in statistics. But they are possibly more widely taught as part of a graduate programme for researchers and postgraduate students in many specialties where the collection and analysis of data are important. These courses are often data based rather than theoretical and they make extensive use of statistical software.
This session will include presentations detailing recent use of multivariate techniques in microarray analysis, ecology and market research. Some interesting data sets will be presented which will be available for others to use in their own teaching of multivariate statistics.
