Sinopsis

Data Science for Business and Decision Making covers both statistics and operations research while most competing textbooks focus on one or the other. As a result, the book more clearly defines the principles of business analytics for those who want to apply quantitative methods in their work. Its emphasis reflects the importance of regression, optimization and simulation for practitioners of business analytics. Each chapter uses a didactic format that is followed by exercises and answers. Freely-accessible datasets enable students and professionals to work with Excel, Stata Statistical Software®, and IBM SPSS Statistics Software®.

De la contraportada

Tangible competitive advantages can emerge from vast amounts of complex data translated into clear and manageable information. Data Science for Business and Decision Making covers both Statistics and Operations Research, while most competing textbooks focus on one or the other. As a result, it more clearly defines the principles of Business Analytics for those with backgrounds in business who want to apply quantitative methods in their work. Its emphasis reflects the importance of regression, optimization, and simulation for practitioners of Business Analytics. Each of its chapters uses the same didactic format followed by exercises with answers at the back of the book. Freely-accessible datasets enable students and professionals to work with Excel, Stata Statistical Software®, IBM SPSS Statistics Software®, and R.
