Multivariate Analysis in Management, Engineering and the Sciences

Description

InTeOp – 2013. — 263 p. — ISBN: 9535109211, 9789535109211The wide application of multivariate techniques and the need to spread them more fully in the academic and the business justify the creation of this book. The objective is to demonstrate interdisciplinary applications to identify patterns, trends, associations and dependencies, in the areas of Management, Engineering and Sciences. The book is addressed to both practicing professionals and researchers in the field. Recently statistical knowledge has become an important requirement and occupies a prominent position in the exercise of various professions. Every day the professionals use more sophisticated statistical tools to assist them in decision making. In the real world, the processes have a large volume of data and are naturally multivariate and as such, require a proper treatment. For these conditions it is difficult or practically impossible to use methods of univariate statistics.Contents: Multivariate Analysis in Management Contributions of Multivariate Statistics in Oil and Gas Industry Application of Multivariate Data Analyses in Waste Management Technology and Society Public Perception: A Structural Equation Modeling Study of the Brazilian Undergraduate Students' Opinions and Attitudes from Sao Paulo State Multivariate Analysis in Engineering Multivariate Analysis in Advanced Oxidation Process Itaipu Hydroelectric Power Plant Structural Geotechnical Instrumentation Temporal Data Under the Application of Multivariate Analysis - Grouping and Ranking Techniques Variable Selection and Feature Extraction Through Artificial Intelligence Techniques Multivariate Analysis in the Sciences: Chemometrics Approach Chemometrics: Theory and Application Ageing and Deterioration of Materials in the Environment - Application of Multivariate Data Analysis Multivariate Analysis in Vibrational Spectroscopy of Highly Energetic Materials and Chemical Warfare Agents Simulants Multivariate Analysis for Fourier Transform Infrared Spectra of Complex Biological Systems and Processes Classification and Ordination Methods as a Tool for Analyzing of Plant Communities with TOC BookMarkLinks
