Statistics Education
| This section contains various types of Statistics Software for Statistics Education that have been created by Larry Weldon, Simon Fraser University, Vancouver, Canada.
|
| |
| Mathematical Equation Plotter | Plots mathematical equations, statistical distributions, derived functions, cumulative functions, and apply numerical integration. Equations can be formulated in algebraic form, for instance: y=exp(a*sin(x)+b). The equation is sent through an interpreter and the analysis and equation chart is generated (in .png format).
|
| |
| Time Series Database | Use this Database to gain access to thousands of time series about financial markets. Note: this application is also available from within our Scientific Forecasting Software.
|
| |
| R modules | Anyone can create, maintain, and publish R-based modules (subject to editorial acceptance) and make them freely available within the Wessa.net framework.
|
| | |
|
| Multiple Regression Software (C module) | Performs Multiple Regression Equation Modeling with the following features: Ordinary Least Squares Estimation, Heteroskedasticity tests, Autocorrelation tests, Misspecification tests, Multicollinearity tests, Regression Charts, ANOVA tables, Goodness of Fit, and much more. Several types of regression will be available in future.
|

Scientific Forecasting Software (C modules)
| Performs Univariate Box-Jenkins ARIMA modeling, forecasting, and various bootstrap simulation methods for the estimation of financial profit density functions according to the following strategies: Buy&Hold, Alexander's Filterrule, truncated Koyck lag-based MACD. Various types of time series analysis tools are available: (Partial) Auto Correlation Function, Spectral Analysis, Variance Reduction Matrix, Standard Deviation-Mean Plot, trimmed Skewness & Kurtosis, suspended rootogram displays, percentiles, concentration, histograms, foreward & backward running autocorrelation, ARMA parameter estimation, and much more.
