Many common uses of multivariate statistical methodologies have similar roots. This course will provide an overview of multivariate methods, including data matrices and vectors, estimates of mean vectors and sample covariance and correlation matrices, statistical computing and outliers, and multivariate data plotting methods and the singular value decompositions. Applications will be principal components analysis, factor analysis, and discriminant analysis. Additionally, the course will address canonical discriminant functions, the use of logistic regression methods for discrimination rules, and logistic regression models. Examples and common computer packages will be used to illustrate the techniques.
