Probability, Statistical Optics, and Data Testing

A basic skill in probability is practically demanded nowadays in many bran­ ches of optics, especially in image science. On the other hand, there is no text presently available that develops probability, and its companion fields stochastic processes and statistics, from the optical perspective. [Short of a book, a chapter was recently written for this purpose; see B. R. Frieden (ed. ): The Compute...
