Statistical Tools for Nonlinear Regression, Second Edition, presents methods for analyzing data using parametric nonlinear regression models. The new edition has been expanded to include binomial, multinomial and Poisson non-linear models. Using examples from experiments in agronomy and biochemistry, it shows how to apply these methods. It concentrates on presenting the methods in an intuitive way rather than developing the theoretical backgrounds. The examples are analyzed with the free software nls2 updated to deal with the new models included in the second edition. The nls2 package is implemented in S-PLUS and R. Its main advantages are to make the model building, estimation and validation tasks, easy to do. More precisely, Complex models can be easily described using a symbolic syntax. The regression function as well as the variance function can be defined explicitly as functions of independent variables and of unknown parameters or they can be defined as the solution to a system of differential equations. Moreover, constraints on the parameters can easily be added to the model. It is thus possible to test nested hypotheses and to compare several data sets. Several additional tools are included in the package for calculating confidence regions for functions of parameters or calibration intervals, using classical methodology or bootstrap. Some graphical tools are proposed for visualizing the fitted curves, the residuals, the confidence regions, and the numerical estimation procedure.

If you need to analyze a data set using a parametric nonlinear regression model, if you are not on familiar terms with statistics and software, and if you make do with S-PLUS, this book is for you. In each chapter we start by presenting practical examples. We then describe the problems posed by these examples in terms of statistical problems, and we demonstrate how to solve these problems. Finally, we apply the proposed methods to the example data sets. You will not find any mathematical proofs here. Rather, we try when possible to explain the solutions using intuitive arguments. This is really a cook book. Most of the methods proposed in the book are derived from classical nonlinear regression theory, but we have also made attempts to provide you with more modern methods that have proved to perform well in practice. Although the theoretical grounds are not developed here, we give, when appropriate, some technical background using a sans serif type style. You can skip these passages if you are not interested in this information. The first chapter introduces several examples, from experiments in agron omy and biochemistry, to which we will return throughout the book. Each example illustrates a different problem, and we show how to methodically handle these problems by using parametric nonlinear regression models.
