Frontiers of Statistical Decision Making and Bayesian Analysis
Thu, 19 Aug 2010 05:13:52 GMT
In Honor of James O. BergerResearch in Bayesian analysis and statistical decision theory is rapidly expanding and diversifying, making it increasingly more difficult for any single researcher to stay up to date on all current research frontiers. This book provides a review of current research challenges and opportunities. While the book can not exhaustively cover all current research areas, it does include some ...
Dependence in Probability and Statistics
Wed, 11 Aug 2010 23:04:29 GMT
series:Lecture Notes in StatisticsThis volume collects recent works on weakly dependent, long-memory and multifractal processes and introduces new dependence measures for studying complex stochastic systems. Other topics include the statistical theory for bootstrap and permutation statistics for infinite variance processes, the dependence structure of max-stable processes, and the statistical properties of spectral estimators ...
Regression with Linear Predictors(Andersen et al.)
Fri, 06 Aug 2010 23:02:09 GMT
series:Statistics for Biology and HealthThis text provides, in a non-technical language, a unified treatment of regression models for different outcome types, such as linear regression, logistic regression, and Cox regression. This is done by focusing on the many common aspects of these models, in particular the linear predictor, which combines the effects of all explanatory variables into a function which is linear in the unknown ...
Copula Theory and Its Applications
Mon, 26 Jul 2010 23:07:58 GMT
Proceedings of the Workshop Held in Warsaw, 25-26 September 2009
series:Lecture Notes in Statistics - ProceedingsCopulas are mathematical objects that fully capture the dependence structure among random variables and hence offer great flexibility in building multivariate stochastic models. Since their introduction in the early 50's, copulas have gained considerable popularity in several fields of applied mathematics, such as finance, insurance and reliability theory. Today, they represent a ...

Large Sample Techniques for Statistics(Jiang)
Wed, 21 Jul 2010 23:04:52 GMT
series:Springer Texts in StatisticsThis book offers a comprehensive guide to large sample techniques in statistics. More importantly, it focuses on thinking skills rather than just what formulae to use; it provides motivations, and intuition, rather than detailed proofs; it begins with very simple techniques, and connects theory and applications in entertaining ways. The first five chapters review some of the basic techniques, ...
Recursive Partitioning and Applications(Zhang et al.)
Wed, 21 Jul 2010 23:04:37 GMT
series:Springer Series in StatisticsThe routes to many important outcomes including diseases and ultimately death as well as financial credit consist of multiple complex pathways containing interrelated events and conditions. We have historically lacked effective methodologies for identifying these pathways and their non-linear and interacting features. This book focuses on recursive partitioning strategies as a response to the ...
A Comparison of the Bayesian and Frequentist Approaches to Estimation(Samaniego)
Fri, 02 Jul 2010 11:25:52 GMT
series:Springer Series in StatisticsThis monograph contributes to the area of comparative statistical inference. Attention is restricted to the important subfield of statistical estimation. The book is intended for an audience having a solid grounding in probability and statistics at the level of the year-long undergraduate course taken by statistics and mathematics majors. The necessary background on Decision Theory and the ...
Statistics of Financial Markets(Borak et al.)
Fri, 02 Jul 2010 11:07:35 GMT
Exercises and Solutions
series:UniversitextPractice makes perfect. Therefore the best method of mastering models is working with them. In this book we present a collection of exercises and solutions which can be helpful in the comprehension of Statistics of Financial Markets. The exercises illustrate the theory by discussing practical examples in detail. We provide computational solutions for the problems, which are all calculated ...
Logistic Regression(Kleinbaum et al.)
Fri, 02 Jul 2010 11:03:12 GMT
A Self-Learning Text
series:Statistics for Biology and HealthThis very popular textbook is now in its third edition. Whether students or working professionals, readers appreciate its unique "lecture book" format. They often say the book reads like they are listening to an outstanding lecturer. This edition includes three new chapters, an updated computer appendix, and an expanded section about modeling guidelines that consider causal diagrams. Like ...
