Recent Advances in Descriptive Multivariate Analysis by Wojtek J Krzanowski
This book contains a collection of commissioned, edited chapters on the general theme of descriptive multivariate analysis, provided by a series of contributors to a symposium held at the University of Exeter. Areas covered include cluster analysis, principal components, canonical correlations and varieties, nonlinear methods, biplots, Procrustes analysis, correspondence analysis, graphical models, and analysis of functional data. The emphasis throughout is on methodology, but computational aspects and applications are also highlighted where appropriate. Each chapter is written by an expert in the field, and the book as a whole provides a state of the art summary of the descriptive multivariate area. The academic level lies between that of an introduction to the subject and an advanced monograph, and the book contains numerous topics not covered elsewhere in existing texts.
Professor Krzanowski completed his PhD in Applied Statistics at Reading University in 1974. Between 1974 and 1990 he was successively Lecturer, Senior Lecturer and Reader in Applied Statistics at Reading University, and was Professor of Statistics at Exeter University from 1990 to 2005. Taking early
retirement in 2005, he is now Emeritus Professor, while continuing to carry out research and to do some part-time teaching. His professional interests are in Multivariate Analysis, Statistical Modelling, Classification and Computational Methods. Publications include 5 books, over 30 contributions to
books, and over 90 articles in scientific journals. He is a former Joint Editor of the Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Series C, and has been on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Classification since its first issue in 1984.
