PRIMER v7 & PERMANOVA+
Uncover the ease, elegance and fun of multivariate statistics
PRIMER version 7
Our core package for sharp, sophisticated nonparametric multivariate analysis
PRIMER has become the global standard in software tools for nonparametric multivariate analysis. Classical techniques falter when there are too many variables, or when assumptions of multivariate normality do not hold.
PRIMER comes to the rescue with statistical methods that rely on robust permutation techniques for rigorous inference, generally performed on rank similarities, chosen by the user. Minimise your assumptions. Maximise your insights.
Filled with a host of new offerings unique to PRIMER (such as 3-way ANOSIM,
threshold-metric MDS, kRCLUSTER, bootstrap averages, etc.), version 7 provides
an indispensable modern tool to visualise, analyse and characterise salient patterns in multivariate data.
PERMANOVA+
Our add-on package: model your multivariate data in response to complex study designs
PERMANOVA+ takes dissimilarity-based analyses to a whole new level: to multi-factorial designs, discriminant analysis, model-selection, and beyond.
Researchers have to consider lots of simultaneous factors: fixed or random, hierarchical, crossed, balanced or unbalanced, repeated measures or other structures in time and space.
PERMANOVA+ lets you easily tackle complexity, including high-order interactions.
With PERMANOVA+, all of the hard stuff has been worked out, implemented and tested by the experts, freeing you to focus on what matters most: the results!
