Download or read book Multivariate Exponential Families A Concise Guide to Statistical Inference written by Stefan Bedbur and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-07 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a concise introduction to exponential families. Parametric families of probability distributions and their properties are extensively studied in the literature on statistical modeling and inference. Exponential families of distributions comprise density functions of a particular form, which enables general assertions and leads to nice features. With a focus on parameter estimation and hypotheses testing, the text introduces the reader to distributional and statistical properties of multivariate and multiparameter exponential families along with a variety of detailed examples. The material is widely self-contained and written in a mathematical setting. It may serve both as a concise, mathematically rigorous course on exponential families in a systematic structure and as an introduction to Mathematical Statistics restricted to the use of exponential families.
Download or read book Exponential Families in Theory and Practice written by Bradley Efron and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past half-century, exponential families have attained a position at the center of parametric statistical inference. Theoretical advances have been matched, and more than matched, in the world of applications, where logistic regression by itself has become the go-to methodology in medical statistics, computer-based prediction algorithms, and the social sciences. This book is based on a one-semester graduate course for first year Ph.D. and advanced master's students. After presenting the basic structure of univariate and multivariate exponential families, their application to generalized linear models including logistic and Poisson regression is described in detail, emphasizing geometrical ideas, computational practice, and the analogy with ordinary linear regression. Connections are made with a variety of current statistical methodologies: missing data, survival analysis and proportional hazards, false discovery rates, bootstrapping, and empirical Bayes analysis. The book connects exponential family theory with its applications in a way that doesn't require advanced mathematical preparation.
Download or read book Statistical Modelling by Exponential Families written by Rolf Sundberg and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-29 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a readable, digestible introduction to exponential families, encompassing statistical models based on the most useful distributions in statistical theory, including the normal, gamma, binomial, Poisson, and negative binomial. Strongly motivated by applications, it presents the essential theory and then demonstrates the theory's practical potential by connecting it with developments in areas like item response analysis, social network models, conditional independence and latent variable structures, and point process models. Extensions to incomplete data models and generalized linear models are also included. In addition, the author gives a concise account of the philosophy of Per Martin-Löf in order to connect statistical modelling with ideas in statistical physics, including Boltzmann's law. Written for graduate students and researchers with a background in basic statistical inference, the book includes a vast set of examples demonstrating models for applications and exercises embedded within the text as well as at the ends of chapters.

Download or read book Information and Exponential Families written by O. Barndorff-Nielsen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-05-07 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published by Wiley in 1978, this book is being re-issued with a new Preface by the author. The roots of the book lie in the writings of RA Fisher both as concerns results and the general stance to statistical science, and this stance was the determining factor in the author's selection of topics. His treatise brings together results on aspects of statistical information, notably concerning likelihood functions, plausibility functions, ancillarity, and sufficiency, and on exponential families of probability distributions.
Download or read book Statistical Theory and Inference written by David J. Olive and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-05-07 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text is for a one semester graduate course in statistical theory and covers minimal and complete sufficient statistics, maximum likelihood estimators, method of moments, bias and mean square error, uniform minimum variance estimators and the Cramer-Rao lower bound, an introduction to large sample theory, likelihood ratio tests and uniformly most powerful tests and the Neyman Pearson Lemma. A major goal of this text is to make these topics much more accessible to students by using the theory of exponential families. Exponential families, indicator functions and the support of the distribution are used throughout the text to simplify the theory. More than 50 ``brand name" distributions are used to illustrate the theory with many examples of exponential families, maximum likelihood estimators and uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimators. There are many homework problems with over 30 pages of solutions.
Download or read book Introductory Statistical Inference written by Nitis Mukhopadhyay and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2006-02-07 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introductory Statistical Inference develops the concepts and intricacies of statistical inference. With a review of probability concepts, this book discusses topics such as sufficiency, ancillarity, point estimation, minimum variance estimation, confidence intervals, multiple comparisons, and large-sample inference. It introduces techniques of two-stage sampling, fitting a straight line to data, tests of hypotheses, nonparametric methods, and the bootstrap method. It also features worked examples of statistical principles as well as exercises with hints. This text is suited for courses in probability and statistical inference at the upper-level undergraduate and graduate levels.

Download or read book All of Statistics written by Larry Wasserman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taken literally, the title "All of Statistics" is an exaggeration. But in spirit, the title is apt, as the book does cover a much broader range of topics than a typical introductory book on mathematical statistics. This book is for people who want to learn probability and statistics quickly. It is suitable for graduate or advanced undergraduate students in computer science, mathematics, statistics, and related disciplines. The book includes modern topics like non-parametric curve estimation, bootstrapping, and classification, topics that are usually relegated to follow-up courses. The reader is presumed to know calculus and a little linear algebra. No previous knowledge of probability and statistics is required. Statistics, data mining, and machine learning are all concerned with collecting and analysing data.
