The aim of this book is to introduce the reader to the statistical methods. Statistics Toolbox provides algorithms and tools for organizing, analyzing, and modeling data. You can use regression or classification for predictive modeling, use statistical plots for exploratory data analysis, and perform hypothesis tests. For analyzing multidimensional data, Statistics Toolbox includes algorithms that let you identify key variables that impact your model with sequential feature selection, transform your data with principal component analysis, apply regularization and shrinkage, or use partial least-squares regression. The essential content of the book is as
