Book Statistical Inference as Severe Testing

Download or read book Statistical Inference as Severe Testing written by Deborah G. Mayo and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mounting failures of replication in social and biological sciences give a new urgency to critically appraising proposed reforms. This book pulls back the cover on disagreements between experts charged with restoring integrity to science. It denies two pervasive views of the role of probability in inference: to assign degrees of belief, and to control error rates in a long run. If statistical consumers are unaware of assumptions behind rival evidence reforms, they can't scrutinize the consequences that affect them (in personalized medicine, psychology, etc.). The book sets sail with a simple tool: if little has been done to rule out flaws in inferring a claim, then it has not passed a severe test. Many methods advocated by data experts do not stand up to severe scrutiny and are in tension with successful strategies for blocking or accounting for cherry picking and selective reporting. Through a series of excursions and exhibits, the philosophy and history of inductive inference come alive. Philosophical tools are put to work to solve problems about science and pseudoscience, induction and falsification.

Download or read book How to Interpret History written by Ron Hayhurst and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2007-11 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History is indeed a mystery. Even the Bible refers to history this way. Differing interpretations of historical events abound as the past is subjected to scrutiny by archeologists, anthropologists, theologians, educators, historians, politicians, authors and film directors, not to mention each of us as individuals. All of this contributes to the mystery already inherent in the events. But...once we know what to look for in the pages of history, it's a different story. For those who find history confusing, How to Interpret History is offered as relief. This handbook offers a biblical framework of revealed and intended principles for interpreting history. It seeks to answer the common criticism that we often cannot see the forest for the many trees. Furthermore, the principles offered here will help the reader interpret the economic, political and cultural globalization that is occurring before our very eyes. So much of the typical storyline of history seems far removed and totally unrelated to that of the Bible. Does this mean there is no connection? Is the Bible storyline irrelevant? Do we really believe God is providentially involved in human affairs? Is God in control of the events that are happening in the world? Are His purposes discoverable? Are we sure God, the Creator of all things, intends for us to unravel the tapestry of history? If so, what tools do we have to discover the answers to these questions? This handbook seeks to show the inseparable nature of interpretation and definition of history, provide common viewpoints to the historical record, identify power groups, discuss the will and purpose of God in history, explore five biblical principles for interpreting history, and offer four essentials to good government demonstrated in history. You will find this reading experience to be a doorway to understanding history, modern politics, nation making, and the Bible. Enjoy the adventure of discovery within these pages.

Book The Statistical Analysis of Recurrent Events

Download or read book The Statistical Analysis of Recurrent Events written by Richard J. Cook and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-08-02 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents models and statistical methods for the analysis of recurrent event data. The authors provide broad, detailed coverage of the major approaches to analysis, while emphasizing the modeling assumptions that they are based on. More general intensity-based models are also considered, as well as simpler models that focus on rate or mean functions. Parametric, nonparametric and semiparametric methodologies are all covered, with procedures for estimation, testing and model checking.

Book EBOOK  Evidence Based Research

Download or read book EBOOK Evidence Based Research written by Brian Brown and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2003-12-16 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A most valuable resource setting health care research into a contemporary philosophical setting" Dr Colin Thunhurst, Course Director, University College Cork * Why is the philosophy of science important for health care research? * What impact do world-views and paradigms have on the research process and the knowledge it generates? * Why do some kinds of concepts get replaced by others? This book covers the major perspectives in the philosophy of science and critically discusses their relevance to health care research, using examples of paradigms, concepts, theories and research findings in the health sciences. It makes sense of the bewildering variety of assumptions, world-views and epistemiological implications of the different research methods. It enables the reader to become an informed consumer of scholarship on health care issues. The authors describe how health care research has been influenced by positivistic and interpretative approaches, and how it has recently been challenged by postmodernist philosophies. All of these approaches have research methods aligned with them which have taken their place in the panoply of tools at the disposal of the health scientist. Written in a clear and accessible style, Evidence-Based Research demonstrates how the different philosophical bases to research impact in real-life health care work and research. It is key reading for the growing number of people involved in health care research in universities and health settings, and is particularly suitable for advanced undergraduate and masters students researching in the health care sciences.

Book Statistical Foundations of Data Science

Download or read book Statistical Foundations of Data Science written by Jianqing Fan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 942 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statistical Foundations of Data Science gives a thorough introduction to commonly used statistical models, contemporary statistical machine learning techniques and algorithms, along with their mathematical insights and statistical theories. It aims to serve as a graduate-level textbook and a research monograph on high-dimensional statistics, sparsity and covariance learning, machine learning, and statistical inference. It includes ample exercises that involve both theoretical studies as well as empirical applications. The book begins with an introduction to the stylized features of big data and their impacts on statistical analysis. It then introduces multiple linear regression and expands the techniques of model building via nonparametric regression and kernel tricks. It provides a comprehensive account on sparsity explorations and model selections for multiple regression, generalized linear models, quantile regression, robust regression, hazards regression, among others. High-dimensional inference is also thoroughly addressed and so is feature screening. The book also provides a comprehensive account on high-dimensional covariance estimation, learning latent factors and hidden structures, as well as their applications to statistical estimation, inference, prediction and machine learning problems. It also introduces thoroughly statistical machine learning theory and methods for classification, clustering, and prediction. These include CART, random forests, boosting, support vector machines, clustering algorithms, sparse PCA, and deep learning.
