Functional Data Analysis with R and MATLAB (Use R!)

The book provides an application-oriented overview of functional analysis, with extended and accessible presentations of key concepts such as spline basis functions, data smoothing, curve registration, functional linear models and dynamic systems

Functional data analysis is put to work in a wide a range of applications, so that new problems are likely to find close analogues in this book

The code in R and Matlab in the book has been designed to permit easy modification to adapt to new data structures and research problems
