STAT823: Statistical Graphics

Principles of graphic presentation are applied to presentation of statistical reports. Modern Applied Statistical Methods described in the text of Venables and Ripley are introduced to create, interpret and present graphic results. These methods include generalised linear models (GLM); robust regression; time series; methods for missing data. We introduce and use SPlus/R software for analysis and graphics, and Matlab for image displays. The unit may be taken as an introduction early in the program, or may serve as an overview of the program when taken towards the end.
