Riassunto

S-PLUS is a powerful environment for the statistical and graphical analysis of data. It provides the tools to implement many statistical ideas which have been made possible by the widespread availability of workstations having good graphics and computational capabilities. This is a guide to using S-PLUS to perform statistical analyses. It provides both an introduction to the use of S-PLUS and a course in modern statistical methods. Throughout, the emphasis is on presenting practical problems and full analyses of real data sets. Many of the methods discussed are approaches to topics such as linear and non-linear regression models, robust and smooth regression methods, survival analysis, multivariate analysis, tree-based methods, time series, spatial statistics, and classification.

From the reviews:

SOCIOLOGICAL METHODS & RESEARCH

"Like many languages, there are often several ways in S to perform a given computing task, and [this book] does a good job of presenting both conceptually simple methods as well as more efficient alternatives. This provides a new user a means of quickly getting started with S and the experienced user a guide for improving his or her programming...The breadth of this book is quite impressive, including chapters on generalized linear models, tree-based classification methods, survival analysis, and others...[It] is very much both a book on modern applied statistics and a book on data analysis using S-PLUS and thus has many conceivable uses: It could serves as an S-PLUS reference, a general reference on modern statistical methods, and a secondary text for any number of applied statistics courses."

CHANCE

"Anyone who seriously uses S-Plus and wishes a practical introduction to modern techniques should buy a copy."
