The fourth edition of this book on Applied Multivariate Statistical Analysis offers the following new features: A new chapter on Variable Selection (Lasso, SCAD and Elastic Net) All exercises are supplemented by R and MATLAB code that can be found on www.quantlet.de The practical exercises include solutions that can be found in H�rdle, W. and Hlavka, Z., Multivariate Statistics: Exercises and Solutions.
