Exploratory data analysis focuses mostly on data exploration instead of model fitting. We can use the recurrence plot as a graphical exploratory data analysis tool. With the recurrence plot, we can obtain the structural pattern of the time series and recognize the structural change points in time series at a glance.

Simulation results for the comparison of estimators of interest are usually reported in tables or plots. However, if the simulations are conducted under various conditions for many estimators, the comparison can be difficult to be made with tables or plots. Furthermore, for algorithms that take a long time to run, the number of iterations of the simulation is costly to to be increased. The analysis of simulation results using regression models allows us to compare the estimators more systematically and effectively. Since variances in performance measures may vary depending on the simulation conditions and estimators, the heteroscedasticity of the error term should be allowed in the regression model. And multiple comparisons should be made because multiple estimators should be compared simultaneously. We introduce background theories of heteroscedasticity and multiple comparisons in the context of analyzing simulation results. We also present a concrete example.

범주형 자료에 대하여 탐색적 자료분석을 할 수 있는 기존의 여러 그림들을 변수의 수가 많아지면 시각적인 식별이 어렵다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 삼차원이상의 다차원 범주형 자료를 이차원 평면성에 표현할 수 있는 링차트(ring chart)를 제안한다. 각 칸의 확률값을 표현하는 링차트는 범주형 자료의 구조 전체를 시각적으로 파악할 수 있으며, 관측값을 표준화한 링차트는 변수들간의 연관성 여부를 시각적으로 판단하는데 유용한 정보를 제공한다. 삼차원이상의 자료에서는 이중 링차트(조건부 링차트)를 개발하여 일차 및 이차교호작용 검정까지도 가능하다. 또한, 관측값과 잔차를 동시에 표현한 잔차 링차트는 설정된 모형의 적합성 여부를 시각적으로 평가할 수 있는 장점이 있다.

We are dealing with the Bayes' rule education tool with Excel Macro and its usage example. When an event occurs, we are interested in whether it does under certain conditions or not. In this case, we use the Bayes' rule to calculate the probability. Bayes' rule is very useful in making decision based on newly obtained statistical information. We introduce an efficient self-teaching educational tool developed to help the learners understand the Bayes' rule through intermediate steps and descriptions. The concept and examples of intermediate steps such as conditional probability, multiplication rule, law of total probability, prior probability and posterior probability could be acquired through step-by-step learning. All the processes leading to result are given with diagrams and detailed descriptions. By just clicking the execution button, users could get the results in one screen.

This study uses a quantile regression analysis to investigate intergenerational economic mobility in Korea. The analysis is based on data from the 1st through 11th waves of the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) conducted from 1998-2008. The household nature of the data allows us to link parents' incomes to children's incomes at different points in time. Using a quantile regression analysis instead of mean one reveals that the effect of fathers' earnings are different across the conditional distribution of sons' earnings, particularly being larger on the upper quantile than on the lower quantile. After controlling effect of sons' college education by including a dummy variable for the degree, however, the pattern among quantile effects for fathers' earnings is no longer clear. Instead a new pattern emerges that education has a much larger effect on the upper quantiles than on the lower ones. Using nonparametric estimates of conditional density curves based on the quantile regression results, we derive some interesting features in graphical forms, which are not obvious in numerical analysis.
