Autor

  ¿Thomas J.  Santner is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Statistics at The Ohio State University.  At Ohio State, he has served as department Chair and Director of the Department's Statistical Consulting Service. Previously, he was a professor in the School of Operations Research and Industrial Engineering at Cornell University. His research interests include the design and analysis of experiments, particularly those involving computer simulators, Bayesian inference, and the analysis of discrete response data.   He is a Fellow of the American Statistical Association, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and is an elected ordinary member of the International Statistical Institute.  He has held visiting appointments at the National Cancer Institute, the University of Washington, Ludwig Maximilians Universität (Munich, Germany), the National Institute of Statistical Science (NISS), and the Isaac Newton Institute (Cambridge, England).     Brian J. Williams has been Statistician at the Los Alamos National Laboratory RAND Corporation since 2003. His research interests include experimental design, computer experiments, Bayesian inference, spatial statistics and statistical computing. Williams was named a Fellow of the American Statistical Association in 2015 and is also the recipient of the Los Alamos Achievement Award for his leadership role in the Consortium for Advanced Simulation of Light Water Reactors (CASL) Program. He holds a doctorate in statistics from The Ohio State University.   William I.  Notz is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Statistics at The Ohio State University.  At Ohio State, he has served as acting department chair, associate dean of the College of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, and as director of the department's StatisticalConsulting Service. His research focuses on experimental designs for computer experiments and he is particularly interested in sequential strategies for selecting points at which to run a computer simulator in order to optimize some performance measure related to the objectives of the computer experiment.  A Fellow of the American Statistical Association, Notz has also served as Editor of the journals Technometrics and the  Journal of Statistics Education.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"This is quite a unique book and may fill a void in the design of experiments literature." Techonmetrics, November 2004

"This book will be a valuable reference for for any statistitican who is collaborating with scientists who use computer experiments or is interested in pursuing research in the area." Biometrics, March 2005

"This book describes methods for designing and analyzing experiments conducted using computer program to replace a physical experiment. ... To the best of my knowledge, there has been no book yet written in the area of computer experiment. ... Therefore, this is quite a unique book and may fill a void in the design of experiments literature. As mentioned in the Preface, this book has tried to keep the mathematics at the level of readers with master's-level training in statistics." (Lih-Yuan Deng, Technometrics, Vol. 46 (4), November, 2004)

"The book by Thomas Santner et al. illustrates the usefulness ofcomputer models and statistical methodologies to extract information in stimulated data ... . Computer modeling has been challenging to the practitioners, and this book eases these challenges with the exposure of basic ideas and daunting formulas. This well written book seven chapters ... . The references are exhaustive and current." (Ramalingam Shanmugam, Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, Vol. 75 (2), February, 2005)
