Abstract

Multivariate data appear naturally in the life sciences because usually more than one response variable is of interest ("multiple endpoints"). We look at different ways to analyze multivariate data. Methodological advancements in recent years have made it possible to analyze many multivariate data sets using completely nonparametric methods. We will provide an overview of current statistical research on these methods, illustrated by examples. In particular, we will focus on inference methods that can be used when the data have a mix of ordinal and quantitative response variables.
