Praise for the first edition: “This book would be especially good for the shelf of anyone who already knows nonparametrics, but wants a reference for how to apply those techniques in R.” -The American Statistician This thoroughly updated and expanded second edition of Nonparametric Statistical Methods Using R covers traditional nonparametric methods and rank-based analyses. Two new chapters covering multivariate analyses and big data have been added. Core classical nonparametrics chapters on one- and two-sample problems have been expanded to include discussions on ties as well as power and sample size determination. Common machine learning topics --- including k-nearest neighbors and trees --- have also been included in this new edition. Key Features: Covers a wide range of models including location, linear regression, ANOVA-type, mixed models for cluster correlated data, nonlinear, and GEE-type. Includes robust methods for linear model analyses, big data, time-to-event analyses, timeseries, and multivariate. Numerous examples illustrate the methods and their computation. R packages are available for computation and datasets. Contains two completely new chapters on big data and multivariate analysis. The book is suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in statistics and data science, and students of other majors with a solid background in statistical methods including regression and ANOVA. It will also be of use to researchers working with nonparametric and rank-based methods in practice.

Nonparametric Statistical Methods Using R covers customary nonparametric methods and rank-based examinations, including estimation and deduction for models running from straightforward area models to general direct and nonlinear models for uncorrelated and corresponded reactions. The creators underscore applications and measurable calculation. They represent the methods with numerous genuine and mimicked information cases utilizing R, including the bundles Rfit and npsm. The book initially gives a diagram of the R dialect and essential factual ideas previously examining nonparametrics. It presents rank-based methods for one-and two-example issues, strategies for relapse models, calculation for general settled impacts ANOVA and ANCOVA models, and time-to-occasion examinations. The last two parts cover further developed material, including high breakdown fits for general relapse models and rank-based surmising for bunch associated information. The book can be utilized as an essential content or supplement in a course on connected nonparametric or hearty strategies and as a source of perspective for scientists who need to execute nonparametric and rank-based methods by and by. Through various illustrations, it demonstrates to perusers proper methodologies to apply these methods utilizing R.

Offering an alternative to traditional statistical procedures which are based on least squares fitting, the authors cover such topics as one and two sample location models, linear models, and multivariate models. Both theory and applications are examined.

Significant developments have taken place during the last thirty years in the field of nonparametric statistics and related topics. These developments and future directions are discussed in this book. Some of the developments focussed on include: robust statistics; rank estimation; bootstrap techniques; regression quantiles; strong approximation of quantile processes; and a preliminary test approach to estimation (combining robust statistics and shrinkage estimation).This volume is dedicated to the memory of Professor Wassily Hoeffding, a pioneer in the field of nonparametric statistics.

This introduction to nonparametric methods, now in its second edition, highlights the way modern computer software enables one to carry out exact tests based on permutation distributions where one had previously to resort to asymptotic results.
