This series of books collects a diverse array of work that provides the reader with theoretical and applied information on data analysis methods, models and techniques, along with appropriate applications. Volume 2 begins with an introductory chapter by Gilbert Saporta, a leading expert in the field, who summarizes the developments in data analysis over the last 50 years. The book is then divided into four parts: Part 1 examines (in)dependence relationships, innovation in the Nordic countries, dentistry journals, dependence among growth rates of GDP of V4 countries, emissions mitigation, and five-star ratings; Part 2 investigates access to credit for SMEs, gender-based impacts given Southern Europe's economic crisis, and labor market transition probabilities; Part 3 looks at recruitment at university job-placement offices and the Program for International Student Assessment; and Part 4 examines discriminants, PageRank, and the political spectrum of Germany.

Thanks to the significant work by the authors and contributors, we have developed this book, the second of two volumes. The data analysis field has been continuously growing over recent decades following the wide applications of computing and data collection along with new developments in analytic tools. Hence, the need for publications is evident. New works appear as printed or e-books covering the need for information from all fields of science and engineering thanks to the wide applicability of data analysis and statistics packages.
In this volume, we present the collected material in four parts, including 14 chapters, in a form that will provide the reader with theoretical and applied information on data analysis methods, models and techniques along with appropriate applications. The results of the work in these chapters are used for further study throughout Europe, including the Nordic countries, the V4 states, southern Europe, Germany and the United Kingdom. Other topics include computing, entropy, innovation and quality assurance.
Before the chapters, we include an excellent introductory and review paper titled “50 Years of Data Analysis: From Exploratory Data Analysis to Predictive Modeling and Machine Learning” by Gilbert Saporta, a leading expert in the field. The paper was based on the speech given for the celebration of his 70th birthday at the ASMDA2017 International Conference in London (held in De Morgan House of the London Mathematical Society).
The current volume contains the following four parts:
Part 1, Applications, includes six chapters: “Context-specific Independence in Innovation Studies” by Federica Nicolussi and Manuela Cazzaro; “Analysis of the Determinants and Outputs of Innovation in the Nordic Countries” by Catia Rosario, Antonio Augusto Costa and Ana Lorga da Silva; “Bibliometric Variables Determining the Quality of a Dentistry Journal” by Pilar Valderrama, Manuel Escabias, Evaristo Jiménez-Contreras, Mariano J. Valderrama and Pilar Baca; “Analysis of Dependence among Growth Rates of GDP of V4 Countries Using Four-dimensional Vine Copulas” by Jozef Komornik, Magda Komornikova and Tomas Bacigal; “Monitoring the Compliance of Countries on Emissions Mitigation Using Dissimilarity Indices” by Eleni Ketzaki, Stavros Rallakis, Nikolaos Farmakis and Eftichios Sartzetakis; and “Maximum Entropy and Distributions of Five-Star Ratings” by Yiannis Dimotikalis.
Part 2, The Impact of the Economic and Financial Crisis in Europe, contains one chapter about credit: “Access to Credit for SMEs after the 2008 Financial Crisis: The Northern Italian Perspective” by Cinzia Colapinto and Mariangela Zenga. This is followed by two chapters on the labor market: “Gender-Based Differences in the Impact of the Economic Crisis on Labor Market Flows in Southern Europe”, and “Measuring Labor Market Transition Probabilities in Europe with Evidence from the EU-SILC, both by Maria Symeonaki, Maria Karamessini and Glykeria Stamatopoulou.
Part 3, Student Assessment and Employment in Europe, has an article concerning university students who are about to graduate and hence are close to employment that is related to Part 2: “Almost Graduated, Close to Employment? Taking into Account the Characteristics of Companies Recruiting at a University Job Placement Office” by Franca Crippa, Mariangela Zenga and Paolo Mariani, followed by a paper on how students are assessed: “How Variation of Scores of the Programme for International Student Assessment Can be Explained through Analysis of Information” by Valérie Girardin, Justine Lequesne and Olivier Thévenon.
Part 4, Visualization, examines this topic in computing: “A Topological Discriminant Analysis” by Rafik Abdesselam, followed by “Using Graph Partitioning to Calculate PageRank in a Changing Network” by Christopher Engström and Sergei Silvestrov, and in politics: “Visualizing the Political Spectrum of Germany by Contiguously Ordering the Party Policy Profiles by Andranik Tangian.
We would like to thank the authors of and contributors to this book. We pass on our sincere appreciation to the referees for their hard work and dedication in providing an improved book form. Finally, we express our thanks to the secretariat and, of course, the publishers.
