Applied Directional Statistics by Christophe Ley

This book describes new data-driven methodologies and case studies.The primary targeted audience is researchers in statistics, as well as those in fundamental roles such as earth sciences, environmetrics, astrophysics, machine learning, image analysis and bioinformatics.

I would recommend Applied Directional Statistics to anyone who has a received graduate-level training in statistics and is interested in directional dataThis book provides a wide variety of data examples that broadens readers’ horizon on the applicability of directional data. The methods described in this book are easy to follow and they all have connections with similar methods in Euclidean data. For instance, the directional kernel density estimator in Chapter 9 and 11 is closely related to the usual kernel density estimator in Euclidean space. These chapters serve as good reading references of a regular statistics course.
