Statistics Sites

• Classification Society of North America (CSNA) server.
  CSNA is a nonprofit interdisciplinary organization whose purposes are to promote the scientific study of classification and clustering (including systematic methods of creating classifications from data), and to disseminate scientific and educational information related to its fields of interests.

  Society for AI and Statistics home page.

  American Statistical Association, a scientific and educational society founded in 1839 to foster excellence in the use and application of statistics to the biological, physical, social and economic sciences. ASA's 19,000 members serve the industrial, governmental and academic sectors. The ASA publishes six journals, conducts scientific conferences, fosters a continuing education program, and is very active in bringing statistical education to elementary and secondary schools.

  Kovach Computing Services home page focusing on shareware and public domain statistical and data analysis software.
  These pages provide detailed information about and shareware copies of my programs MVSP and Oriana. MVSP is a multivariate statistical program for MS-DOS that calculates a variety of cluster analyses as well as PCA, PCO, and correspondence/detrended correspondence analysis. Oriana is my new circular statistics/orientation analysis package for Windows.

Computing as Compression
This is a summary of the main ideas in a programme of research which seeks to develop a new theory of computing and a `new generation' computing system based on the SP theory. This research relates to several AI topics (learning, pattern recognition, deduction, abduction, data mining, and others) as well as `mainstream' computing (execution of functions, information retrieval, software design, and others).
