Conditional Specification of Statistical Models
ISBN: 9780387987613 / Angielski / Twarda / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Efforts to visualize multivariate densities necessarily involve the use of cross-sections, or, equivalently, conditional densities. This book focuses on distributions that are completely specified in terms of conditional densities. They are appropriately used in any modeling situation where conditional information is completely or partially available. All statistical researchers seeking more flexible models than those provided by classical models will find conditionally specified distributions of interest.

Modeling Survival Data: Extending the Cox Model
ISBN: 9780387987842 / Angielski / Twarda / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is a book for statistical practitioners, particularly those who design and analyze studies for survival and event history data. Its goal is to extend the toolkit beyond the basic triad provided by most statistical packages: the Kaplan-Meier estimator, log-rank test, and Cox regression model. Building on recent developments motivated by counting process and martingale theory, it shows the reader how to extend the Cox model to analyse multiple/correlated event data using marginal and random effects (frailty) models. It covers the use of residuals and diagnostic plots to identify...

Scan Statistics
ISBN: 9780387988191 / Angielski / Twarda / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In many statistical applications the scientists have to analyze the occurrence of observed clusters of events in time or space. The scientists are especially interested to determine whether an observed cluster of events has occurred by chance if it is assumed that the events are distributed independently and uniformly over time or space. Applications of scan statistics have been recorded in many areas of science and technology including: geology, geography, medicine, minefield detection, molecular biology, photography, quality control and reliability theory and radio-optics.

Subsampling
ISBN: 9780387988542 / Angielski / Twarda / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since Efron's profound paper on the bootstrap, an enormous amount of effort has been spent on the development of bootstrap, jacknife, and other resampling methods. The primary goal of these computer-intensive methods has been to provide statistical tools that work in complex situations without imposing unrealistic or unverifiable assumptions about the data generating mechanism. The primary goal of this book is to lay some of the foundation for subsampling methodology and related methods.

Statistical Consulting
ISBN: 9780387988634 / Angielski / Twarda / 390 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The motivation for this book arose from the statistical consulting course that we have taught regularly for several years. In that course, we focus on the themes: - Understanding the statistical consulting "process" - Developing effective communication skills - Obtaining experience through case studies. In reality, there is no substitute for consulting directly with a client and for this interaction to be effective, good communication skills are essential. Unfortunately, this aspect of a statistician's training is often neglected and statistics graduates have little choice but to learn these...

Gaussian and Non-Gaussian Linear Time Series and Random Fields
ISBN: 9780387989174 / Angielski / Twarda / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Much of this book is concerned with autoregressive and moving av erage linear stationary sequences and random fields. These models are part of the classical literature in time series analysis, particularly in the Gaussian case. There is a large literature on probabilistic and statistical aspects of these models-to a great extent in the Gaussian context. In the Gaussian case best predictors are linear and there is an extensive study of the asymptotics of asymptotically optimal esti mators. Some discussion of these classical results is given to provide a contrast with what may occur in the...

Probability Via Expectation
ISBN: 9780387989556 / Angielski / Twarda / 353 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The third edition of 1992 constituted a major reworking of the original text, and the preface to that edition still represents my position on the issues that stimulated me first to write. The present edition contains a number of minor modifications and corrections, but its principal innovation is the addition of material on dynamic programming, optimal allocation, option pricing and large deviations. These are substantial topics, but ones into which one can gain an insight with less labour than is generally thought. They all involve the expectation concept in an essential fashion, even the...

Adaptive Regression
ISBN: 9780387989655 / Angielski / Twarda / 177 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Linear regression is an important area of statistics, theoretical or applied. There have been a large number of estimation methods proposed and developed for linear regression. Each has its own competitive edge but none is good for all purposes. This manuscript focuses on construction of an adaptive combination of two estimation methods. The purpose of such adaptive methods is to help users make an objective choice and to combine desirable properties of two estimators.

Observational Studies
ISBN: 9780387989679 / Angielski / Twarda / 377 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An Observational study is an empiric investigation of the effects caused by a treatment, policy, or intervention in which it is not possible to assign subjects at random to treatment or control, as would be done in a controlled experiment. Observational studies are common in most fields that study the effects of treatments on people. The second edition of Observational Studies is about 50 percent longer than the first edition, with many new examples and methods. There are new chapters on nonadditive models for treatment effects (Chapter 5) and planning observational studies (Chapter 11) and...

Stat Labs: Mathematical Statistics Through Applications
ISBN: 9780387989747 / Angielski / Miękka / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book uses a model we have developed for teaching mathematical statistics through in depth case studies. Traditional statistics texts have many small numer ical examples in each chapter to illustrate a topic in statistical theory. Here, we instead make a case study the centerpiece of each chapter. The case studies, which we call labs, raise interesting scienti?c questions, and ?guring out how to answer a question is the starting point for developing statistical theory. The labs are substan tial exercises; they have nontrivial solutions that leave room for different analyses of the data....
