Research in functional data analysis is gaining traction, with methodologies that address the unique challenges posed by data that varies over a continuum, such as time or space.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Frequentist Methods:
There has been a noticeable decrease in the emphasis on purely frequentist approaches, as the field shifts towards more Bayesian methodologies and data-driven techniques. - Classical Time Series Analysis:
Research specifically centered on classical time series methods has become less prominent, with a growing preference for more robust and flexible models that can handle complex data structures. - Basic Statistical Techniques:
Papers focusing on introductory or basic statistical techniques without novel contributions or applications are less frequently published, indicating a shift towards more advanced and innovative statistical methods. - Univariate Statistical Methods:
The focus on univariate statistical methods is waning, as the journal increasingly prioritizes multivariate and complex modeling approaches that better address modern data challenges. - Simple Linear Regression:
There is a decreasing trend in the publication of studies centered around simple linear regression models, as researchers explore more sophisticated modeling techniques that can capture non-linear relationships and interactions.
