Parameter Redundancy and Identifiability

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Statistical and mathematical models are defined by parameters that describe different characteristics of those models. This book explains why parameter redundancy and non-identifiability is a problem and the different methods that can be used for detection, including in a Bayesian context.
