Statistical models for causal analysis

This book contains the ideas of functional data analysis by a number of case studies. The case studies are accessible to research workers in a wide range of disciplines. Every reader should gain not only a specific understanding of the methods of functional data analysis, but more importantly a general insight into the underlying patterns of thought. There is an associated web site with MATLABr and S?PLUSr implementations of the methods discussed Bivariate linear regression -- Multiple regression -- Multiple classification analysis -- Path analysis -- Logit regression -- Multinomial logit regression -- Survival models, pt. 1 : life tables -- Survival models, pt. 2 : proportional hazard models -- Survival models, pt. 3 -- hazard models with time dependence
