Summary Assuming only background knowledge of algebra and elementary calculus, and access to a modern personal computer, Nonlinear Computer Modeling of Chemical and Biochemical Data presents the fundamental basis and procedures of data modeling by computer using nonlinear regression analysis. Bypassing the need for intermediary analytical stages, this method allows for rapid analysis of highly complex processes, thereby enabling reliable information to be extracted from raw experimental data. By far the greater part of the book is devoted to selected applications of computer modeling to various experiments used in chemical and biochemical research. The discussions include a short review of principles and models for each technique, examples of computer modeling for real and theoretical data sets, and examples from the literature specific to each instrumental technique. The book also offers detailed tutorial on how to construct suitable models and a score list of appropriate mathematics software packages.
