Designed for a graduate course in applied statistics, Nonparametric Methods in Statistics with SAS Applications teaches students how to apply nonparametric techniques to statistical data. It starts with the tests of hypotheses and moves on to regression modeling, time-to-event analysis, density estimation, and resampling methods.

"Accessible to students in statistics and industrial engineering, this text presents a systematic introduction to traditional and modern SPC methods. Requiring some background in basic linear algebra, calculus, and introductory statistics, the book illustrates the methods using detailed worked examples from the author's industrial experience. Pseudocode is provided for important methods and R code is available online. The text includes exercises at...

Bayesian Networks: With Examples in R, Second Edition introduces Bayesian networks using a hands-on approach. Simple yet meaningful examples illustrate each step of the modelling process and discuss side by side the underlying theory and its application using R code. The examples start from the simplest notions and gradually increase in complexity. In particular, this new edition contains significant new material on topics from modern machine-learning...

Teaches Students How to Perform Spatio-Temporal Analyses within Epidemiological Studies Spatio-Temporal Methods in Environmental Epidemiology is the first book of its kind to specifically address the interface between environmental epidemiology and spatio-temporal modeling. In response to the growing need for collaboration between statisticians and environmental epidemiologists, the book links recent developments in spatio-temporal methodology with...

Statistical Rethinking: A Bayesian Course with Examples in R and Stan builds readers knowledge of and confidence in statistical modeling. Reflecting the need for even minor programming in today s model-based statistics, the book pushes readers to perform step-by-step calculations that are usually automated. This unique computational approach ensures that readers understand enough of the details to make reasonable choices and interpretations in their...
