Wayne L. Myers, Ganapati P. Patil

Multivariate Methods of Representing Relations in R for Prioritization Purposes

Selective Scaling, Comparative Clustering, Collective Criteria and Sequenced Sets

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This monograph is multivariate, multi-perspective and multipurpose. We intend to be innovatively integrative through statistical synthesis. Innovation requires capacity to operate in ways that are not ordinary, which means that conventional computations and generic graphics will not meet the needs of an adaptive approach. Flexible formulation and special schematics are essential elements that must be manageable and economical.
