Linear Models and the Relevant Distributions and Matrix Algebra (eBook, ePUB)

A Unified Approach Volume 2

Beschreibung

Linear Models and the Relevant Distributions and Matrix Algebra: A Unified Approach, Volume 2 covers several important topics that were not included in the first volume. The second volume complements the first, providing detailed solutions to the exercises in both volumes, thereby greatly enhancing its appeal for use in advanced statistics programs. This volume can serve as a valuable reference. It can also serve as a resource in a mathematical statistics course for use in illustrating various theoretical concepts in the context of a relatively complex setting of great practical importance. Together with the first volume, this volume provides a largely self-contained treatment of an important area of statistics and should prove highly useful to graduate students and others.

Key Features:

• Includes solutions to the exercises from both the first and second volumes
• Includes coverage of several topics not covered in the first volume
• Highly valuable as a reference book for graduate students and researchers

Autor

David A. Harville served for 10 years as a mathematical statistician in the Applied Mathematics Research Laboratory of the Aerospace Research Laboratories (at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio), for 20 years as a full professor in Iowa State University's Department of Statistics (where he now has emeritus status), and 7 years as a research staff member of the Mathematical Sciences Department of IBM's T.J. Watson Research Center. He has extensive experience in the area of linear statistical models, having taught (on numerous occasions) M.S. and Ph.D. level courses on that subject, having been the thesis advisor of 10 Ph.D. graduates, and having authored (or co-authored) 3 books and more than 80 research articles. His work has been recognized through his election as a Fellow of the American Statistical Association and of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics and as a member of the International Statistical Institute.

Rezensionen

"The book presents procedures for making statistical inferences on the basis of the classical linear statistical model, and discusses the various properties of those procedures. Supporting material on matrix algebra and statistical distributions is interspersed with a discussion of relevant inferential procedures and their properties. The coverage ranges from MS-level to advanced researcher. In particular, the material in chapters 6-7 is not covered in an approachable manner in any other books, and greatly generalizes the traditional normal-based linear regression model to the elliptical distributions, thus greatly elucidating the advanced reader on just how far this class of models can be extended. Refreshingly, the material also goes

beyond the classical 20th century coverage to include some 21st century topics like microarray (big) data analysis, and control of false discovery rates in large scale experiments...From the point of view of an advanced instructor and researcher on the subject, I very strongly recommend publication...Note that...this book provides the coverage of 3 books, hence the title purporting to provide a 'unified approach' (of 3 related subjects) is indeed accurate."
~Alex Trindade, Texas Tech University

"The book is very well written, with exceptional attention to details. It provides detailed derivations or proofs of almost all the results, and offers in-depth coverage of the topics discussed. Some of these materials (e.g., spherical/elliptical distributions) are hard to find from other sources. Anyone who is interested in linear models should benefit from reading this book and find it especially useful for a thorough understanding of the linear-model theory in a unified framework... The book is a delight to read."
~Huaiqing Wu, Iowa State University

"This book is useful in two ways: an excellent text book for a graduate level linear models course, and for those who want to learn linear mod
