Time Series and Forecasting -- New Course from Practical Stats
Today, water-quality and other scientific data can be measured by
automatic recorders or remotely by satellite only seconds apart from
one another.
Agencies have begun to store, present, and analyze these "continuous
data".
Data recorded this closely together usually violate the independence
assumption of standard statistical procedures.
The consequence is that standard statistical methods such as
hypothesis tests and regression provide invalid results
when used on data stored every 1, 5, or 15 minutes apart.
Our TSF course presents statistical methods which not only accommodate
frequent data,
but use their information for better estimates/forecasts of unmeasured
data.
TSF will be offered twice in Feb 2010: Feb 3-4 at the Kilauea
Military Camp, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (the Big Island),
and Feb 16-17 on the campus of the Colorado School of Mines, Golden
CO.
Registration information and costs are available at
http://www.practicalstats.com/new_classes/classes.html.
Nondetects And Data Analysis
The course that illustrates methods for correctly handling data with
nondetects, will be held Feb 18-19, 2010
on the campus of the Colorado School of Mines, Golden CO.
Online registration is available at
http://www.practicalstats.com/new_classes/classes.html.
A full course outline is also available on the PracticalStats site.
Make sense of data with nondetects by using methods translated from
the medical statistics field.
New topics include how to sum a series of components to get a total
when some components are nondetects. |
