Book Description

This book combines notions of algebra and statistics to develop a systematic methodology to better explore the interplay between symmetry-related research questions and their statistical inference. To guide the statistical study of structured data, the author examines the interplay between symmetry transformations that are applied to the sets of labels for the experimental data and the resulting data summaries that follow from those transformations.
