A fair question to ask of an advocate of subjective Bayesianism (which the author is) is "how would you model uncertainty?" In this book, the author writes about how he has done it using real problems from the past, and offers additional comments about the context in which he was working.

The book presents the basic principles of sound graphical design and applies these principles to engaging examples using the graphical functions available in R. It offers a wide variety of graphical displays for the presentation of data, including modern tools for data visualization and representation. The second edition will add examples with t

This textbook is designed for an undergraduate course in data science that emphasizes topics in both statistics and computer science.

For advanced undergraduate or non-major graduate students in Advanced Statistical Modeling or Regression II and courses in Generalized Linear Models, Longitudinal Data Analysis, Correlated Data, Multilevel Models. Material on R at the end of each chapter. Solutions manual for qualified instructors.

Linear Models with Python offers up-to-date insight on essential data analysis topics, from estimation, inference, and prediction to missing data, factorial models, and block designs. Numerous examples illustrate how to apply the different methods using Python

Generalized Linear Mixed Models: Modern Concepts, Methods and Applications (2nd edition) presents an updated introduction to linear modeling using the generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) as the overarching conceptual framework. It provides a comprehensive introduction to GLMM methodology.

This is the second edition of a popular graduate level textbook on time series modeling, computation and inference. The book is essentially unique in its approach, with a focus on Bayesian methods, although classical methods are also covered.

This textbook on Bayesian Statistics can be used to teach an upper division statistics course, a master's level course, a Ph.D. level course or used independently by researchers. It emphasizes the art of data modeling and analysis over technicalities and is rich with technical demonstrations available to Ph.D. students who need them and to others who are interested in them. The new edition features new material and new exercises and shifts the software focus from WinBUGS to OpenBUGS.

Statistical Modeling and Data Analysis: An Introduction

With discussions on many developments in Bayesian methodologies, this work considers statistical issues in biomedical research. It includes an overview of Bayesian statistics, a discussion of rates and proportions with applications in clinical and other population-based studies, and developments in clinical trial design.

This text shows how to use multivariate analysis to extract useful information from multivariate data and understand the structure of random phenomena. Along with the basic concepts of various procedures in traditional multivariate analysis, the book covers nonlinear techniques for clarifying phenomena behind observed multivariate data. It prima

This is a textbook for an undergraduate course in statistics for engineers with a minimal calculus prerequisite. The second edition differs from existing books in three main aspects: it is the only introductory statistics textbook written for engineers that uses R throughout the text, there is an emphasis on statistical methods most relevant to

"This book presents the theory and practice of non-parametric statistics, with an emphasis on motivating principals. The course is a combination of traditional rank based methods and more computationally-intensive topics like density estimation, kernel smoothers in regression, and robustness. The text is aimed at MS students"--

This textbook deals with the major aspects of this subject in a manner which is mathematically rigorous but not pedantic. Two new chapters on queueing theory and on probability in physics have been added.

Intended for those involved in complex processes in any industry, this book covers basic and more advanced techniques of data analysis. It also discusses experimental design and the so-called "Taguchi methods". Throughout the emphasis is on quality improvement and process capability.

This book clarifies, in an approachable and practical way, the general principles involved in tackling real-life statistical problems.

This introduction to statistics emphasizes the importance of data - its collection, summary and appraisal - in the application of statistical techniques.

This is a first year graduate text on large sample theory in statistics. Nearly all topics are covered in their multivariate settings. The text falls into four parts and includes many examples. In the first part, basic probabilistic notions are treated.

Presents an overview of the logistic models, including binary, proportional, ordered, partially ordered, and unordered categorical response regression procedures. This book discusses other topics such as panel, survey, skewed, penalized, and exact logistic models. It illustrates how to apply the various models to health, and social science data.

An introduction to statistics for technology, presenting the range of statistical methods commonly used in science, social science and engineering. The mathematics is simple and straightforward; statistical concepts are explained carefully; and real-life examples are used throughout the book.

Statistics for Finance develops students' professional skills in statistics with applications in finance. Developed from the authors' courses at the Technical University of Denmark and Lund University, the text bridges the gap between classical, rigorous treatments of financial mathematics that rarely connect concepts to data and books on econometrics and time series analysis that do not cover specific problems related to option valuation. The book discusses applications of financial derivatives pertaining to risk assessment and elimination. The authors cover various statistical and mathematical techniques, including linear and nonlinear time series analysis, stochastic calculus models, stochastic differential equations, ItA 's formula, the Black-Scholes model, the generalized method-of-moments, and the Kalman filter. They explain how these tools are used to price financial derivatives, identify interest rate models, value bonds, estimate parameters, and much more. This textbook will help students understand and manage empirical research in financial engineering. It includes examples of how the statistical tools can be used to improve value-at-risk calculations and other issues. In addition, end-of-chapter exercises develop students' financial reasoning skills.

This book is a text intended for advanced undergraduates or graduate students which provides theoretical tools for analyzing and designing a large class of supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement statistical machine learning algorithms using classical theorems from the fields of nonlinear optimization theory and mathematical statistics.

This text provides graduate students with a rigorous treatment of probability theory, with an emphasis on results central to theoretical statistics. It presents classical probability theory motivated with illustrative examples in biostatistics, such as outlier tests, monitoring clinical trials, and using adaptive methods to make design changes b

Bayesian statistics has been advancing in many aspects in recent years. Bayesian learning provides a natural framework for students to solve scientific problems. This book provides an introduction to Bayesian analysis for undergraduate students with calculus, statistics, and a computational background.
