Abstract

At last! A comprehensive, applications-oriented mixed models guide for data analysis. Discover the latest capabilities available for a wide range of applications featuring the MIXED procedure in SAS/STAT software. This practical guide integrates the theory underlying the models, the specific forms of the models for various applications, and examples from many different fields of study using appropriate SAS code with interpretation of results. Specific models discussed include: simple random-effect only, simple mixed with a single fixed and random effect, split-plot, multilocation, repeated measures, analysis of covariance, random coefficients, and spatial correlation. With a background in two-way ANOVA and regression and basic knowledge of linear models and matrix algebra, you will benefit from the discussion of basic to advanced topics in this book. A working knowledge of experimental design is also helpful.

Abstract

Easy to read and comprehensive, Survival Analysis Using SAS: A Practical Guide, Second Edition, by Paul D. Allison, is an accessible, data-based introduction to methods of survival analysis. Researchers who want to analyze survival data with SAS will find just what they need with this fully updated new edition that incorporates the many enhancements in SAS procedures for survival analysis in SAS 9. Although the book assumes only a minimal knowledge of SAS, more experienced users will learn new techniques of data input and manipulation. Numerous examples of SAS code and output make this an eminently practical book, ensuring that even the uninitiated become sophisticated users of survival analysis. The main topics presented include censoring, survival curves, Kaplan-Meier estimation, accelerated failure time models, Cox regression models, and discrete-time analysis. Also included are topics not usually covered in survival analysis books, such as time-dependent covariates, competing risks, and repeated events. Survival Analysis Using SAS: A Practical Guide, Second Edition, has been thoroughly updated for SAS 9, and all figures are presented using ODS Graphics. This new edition also documents major enhancements to the STRATA statement in the LIFETEST procedure; includes a section on the PROBPLOT command, which offers graphical methods to evaluate the fit of each parametric regression model; introduces the new BAYES statement for both parametric and Cox models, which allows the user to do a Bayesian analysis using MCMC methods; demonstrates the use of the counting process syntax as an alternative method for handling time-dependent covariates; contains a section on cumulative incidence functions; and describes the use of the new GLIMMIX procedure to estimate random-effects models for discrete-time data.

Abstract

This new edition to the classic book by ggplot2 creator Hadley Wickham highlights compatibility with knitr and RStudio. ggplot2 is a data visualization package for R that helps users create data graphics, including those that are multi-layered, with ease. With ggplot2, it's easy to : (-) produce handsome, publication-quality plots with automatic legends created from the plot specification ; (-) superimpose multiple layers (points, lines, maps, tiles, box plots) from different data sources with automatically adjusted common scales ; (-) add customizable smoothers that use powerful modeling capabilities of R, such as loess, linear models, generalized additive models, and robust regression ; (-) save any ggplot2 plot (or part thereof) for later modification or reuse ; (-) create custom themes that capture in-house or journal style requirements and that can easily be applied to multiple plots ; (-) approach a graph from a visual perspective, thinking about how each component of the data is represented on the final plot. This book will be useful to everyone who has struggled with displaying data in an informative and attractive way. Some basic knowledge of R is necessary (e.g., importing data into R). ggplot2 is a mini-language specifically tailored for producing graphics, and you'll learn everything you need in the book. After reading this book you'll be able to produce graphics customized precisely for your problems, and you'll find it easy to get graphics out of your head and on to the screen or page.
