Ludovic Lebart’s approach: a way for teaching applied Multivariate Statistics in graduate courses with a heterogeneous audience


Presenter


Abstract

First of all we describe different kinds of audiences in a graduate multivariate course. We talk about how to start a Multivariate Statistics Course. We show a survey as an example of Multivariate Data. Factorial Methods and Adjustment Criteria are discussed, within a general analysis. The importance of the “illustrative variables” according to Lebart´s approach are discussed, and finally we discuss the complementary applications of factorial methods with cluster methods to analyze the surveys when the data are quantitative and when they are qualitative.
