VARIOUS CASE STUDIES

This webpage proposes several case studies, most of them illustrating the purpose of our book (references of chapters and parts are those of our NPFDA book). All the "pdf" files explain the statistical problematic, describe the commandlines for loading the data, performing the functional nonparametric methods and plotting the results. Note that the "plain text" files are very useful for reproducing yourself the described examples.
