Opis

In engineering work and other practical situations, methods of a non-stop character are often needed. The computer intensive methods outlined in this book should show how to pass many obstacles that could not previously be overcome. Much emphasis in this book is placed on applications in science, economics, reliability, meteorology, medicine and transportation. In principle every area where data deserve statistical analyses there is a relevant application of these new methods. This book is aimed at classically educated statisticians as well as the younger generation.
