This text shows how to use multivariate analysis to extract useful information from multivariate data and understand the structure of random phenomena. Along with the basic concepts of various procedures in traditional multivariate analysis, the book covers nonlinear techniques for clarifying phenomena behind observed multivariate data. It primarily focuses on regression modeling, classification, discrimination, dimension reduction, and clustering. Many examples and figures throughout facilitate a deep understanding of the multivariate analysis techniques, including how to select the optimal model.
