Through in-depth case studies, the author illustrates how such techniques can be employed in the archaeological context. These examples are taken from a wide range of different countries and reflect the international nature of archaeology, and its students and practitioners. The technical level of the book is intermediate and is for the academic and professional archaeologist needing to know more about the statistical techniques available to them. The structure and content of the book mean that it will also appeal to applied statisticians interested in how statistical methods can be used in different application areas.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Data sets and problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Kernel density estimates.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Sampling.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Regression and related models.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Multivariate methods – an introduction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Principal component analysis and related methods.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Cluster analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Discrimination and classification.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Missing data and outliers.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Analysis of tabular data.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Computer-intensive methods.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Spatial analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 Bayesian methods.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 Absolute dating – radiocarbon calibration.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 Relative dating – seriation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 Quantification.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 Lead isotope analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 The megalithic yard.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e20 Comparing assemblage diversity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e21 Shorter studies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix – Web resources.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA.1 S - Plus and R.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA.2 Other resources.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Mathematics [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Mathematics\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Mathematics%20%5BPB%5D%22\"\u003ePB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52278023618840,"sku":"9780470711132","price":83.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780470711132.jpg?v=1781456107","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/statistics-in-archaeology-hardback-9780470711132","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
