The purpose of this monograph is to provide a theory of Markov processes that are invariant under the actions of Lie groups, focusing on ways to represent such processes in the spirit of the classical Levy-Khinchin representation.
The urgent need to describe and to solve certain problems connected to extreme phenomena in various areas of applications has been of decisive influence on the vital development of extreme value theory.
This book is a comprehensive guide to methodologies for analyzing reliability and optimizing maintenance in complex systems, spanning from initial design to operational stages.
Eine einführende Veranstaltung zur Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung und Statistik ist in vielen Studiengängen ein fester und wichtiger Bestandteil der Ausbildung.
Since the publication of the first edition in 2000, there has been an explosive growth of literature in biopharmaceutical research and development of new medicines.
Diese bewährte Einführung in die Statistik wurde bei den europäischen Comenius-Multimedia-Wettbewerben 2011 und 2012 als inhaltlich und didaktisch beispielhaft ausgezeichnet.
This study analyses the newly available statistical evidence on income distribution in the former Soviet Union both by social group and by republic, and considers the significance of inequalities as a factor contributing to the demise of the Communist regime.
The use of probabilistic methods in the biological sciences has been so well established by now that mathematical biology is regarded by many as a distinct dis- cipline with its own repertoire of techniques.
Developed from the authors' graduate-level biostatistics course, Applied Categorical and Count Data Analysis, Second Edition explains how to perform the statistical analysis of discrete data, including categorical and count outcomes.
Stochastic processes occur everywhere in the sciences, economics and engineering, and they need to be understood by (applied) mathematicians, engineers and scientists alike.
Despite the fact that, for most of us, time is a central focus of our lives, the examination of what we do with our time and why has received limited attention as a method for understanding human behavior in the social sciences.
The book presents a collection of peer-reviewed short papers selected from those presented at the International Conference Mathematical and Statistical Methods for Actuarial Sciences and Finance - MAF2024.
This book describes methods for statistical brain imaging data analysis from both the perspective of methodology and from the standpoint of application for software implementation in neuroscience research.
This is the very first comprehensive monograph in a burgeoning, new research area - the theory of cooperative game with incomplete information with emphasis on the solution concept of Bayesian incentive compatible strong equilibrium that encompasses the concept of the Bayesian incentive compatible core.
All the Essentials to Start Using Adaptive Designs in No TimeCompared to traditional clinical trial designs, adaptive designs often lead to increased success rates in drug development at reduced costs and time.
This book introduces readers to benchmarking techniques in the stochastic environment, primarily stochastic data envelopment analysis (DEA), and provides stochastic models in DEA for the possibility of variations in inputs and outputs.
Astrostatistical Challenges for the New Astronomy presents a collection of monographs authored by several of the disciplines leading astrostatisticians, i.
This research monograph summarizes a line of research that maps certain classical problems of discrete mathematics and operations research - such as the Hamiltonian Cycle and the Travelling Salesman Problems - into convex domains where continuum analysis can be carried out.
