The increased accuracy and power of modern methods, versus conventional approaches to the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and regression, is remarkable. Through a combination of theoretical developments, improved and more flexible statistical methods, and the power of the computer, it is now possible to address problems with standard methods that seemed insurmountable only a few years ago"-- Estimation theory. 10573 Robust statistics. 40044 Statistical hypothesis testing. 40045 7 cbc orignew 1 ecip 20 y-gencatlg ddc DVD 32158 266658 0 2013-11-16 0 0 519.544 WRI 2013-11-16 CL CL 2013-11-16 00:00:00 BOOK ddc 0
