Modern data analysis emphasizes multivariable techniques. In this course such techniques are introduced by first studying the multivariate normal distribution. Then Hotelling T2, MANOVA and multivariable regression is presented. Futhermore the course covers principal component analysis, factor analysis, canonical correlation analysis, discriminant analysis and cluster analysis.
You learn about the basic principles for analyzing multivariate data using the multinormal distribution, and the main models based on multivariate correlations.
