References

The published reference literature behind the Intratec methodologies, filterable by the solution each work supports.

The methodology rests on an established body of reference literature — textbooks, statistical manuals, and technical papers — drawn on throughout the development of the methodology and the elaboration of its models, so that any reader can trace the underlying concepts and techniques to their primary sources. Every work listed is a published, independently obtainable source — a textbook, an official statistical manual, or a peer-reviewed technical paper, never proprietary or vendor-supplied data — so the foundations of the methodology can be audited without relying on Intratec's own account of them.
