TIME SERIES ANALYSIS WITH APPLICATIONS IN R (H/C)

THIS BOOK HAS BEEN DEVELOPED FOR A ONE-SEMESTER COURSE USUALLY ATTENDED BY STUDENTS IN STATISTICS, ECONOMICS, BUSINESS, ENGINEERING, AND QUANTITATIVE SOCIAL SCIENCES. A UNIQUE FEATURE OF THIS EDITION IS ITS INTEGRATION WITH THE R COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT. BASIC APPLIED STATISTICS IS ASSUMED THROUGH MULTIPLE REGRESSION. CALCULUS IS ASSUMED ONLY TO THE EXTENT OF MINIMIZING SUMS OF SQUARES BUT A CALCULUS-BASED INTRODUCTION TO STATISTICS IS NECESSARY FOR A THOROUGH UNDERSTANDING OF SOME OF THE THEORY. ACTUAL TIME SERIES DATA DRAWN FROM VARIOUS DISCIPLINES ARE USED THROUGHOUT THE BOOK TO ILLUSTRATE THE METHODOLOGY.
