| Matlab Primer (pdf) | This free Matlab primer was written for Matlab 4.0 but it's not bad for free. If you like it, you might want to get the most recent version, which is not free. If not, go to a bookstore and find another book on Matlab (there are many), or check out the course's optional textbook by Stormy Attaway. |
| Bootstrap Methods and Permutation Tests (pdf) | Bootstrap Methods and Permutation Tests (BMPT) by Hesterberg, Moore, Monaghan, Clipson, and Epstein. Espeically good reading for Permutation Tests. More information (and datasets needed for examples) available here. |
| Computer-Intensive Methods in Statistical Analysis (pdf) | An introduction to Bootstrap, from IEEE Signal Processing Magazine. Heavy on the math, but a solid introduction. |
| A Tutorial on Principal Component Analysis (pdf) | By Jonathon Shlens. A tutorial of moderate difficulty. |
