Book Statistical Estimation for Truncated Exponential Families

Download or read book Statistical Estimation for Truncated Exponential Families written by Masafumi Akahira and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-26 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents new findings on nonregular statistical estimation. Unlike other books on this topic, its major emphasis is on helping readers understand the meaning and implications of both regularity and irregularity through a certain family of distributions. In particular, it focuses on a truncated exponential family of distributions with a natural parameter and truncation parameter as a typical nonregular family. This focus includes the (truncated) Pareto distribution, which is widely used in various fields such as finance, physics, hydrology, geology, astronomy, and other disciplines. The family is essential in that it links both regular and nonregular distributions, as it becomes a regular exponential family if the truncation parameter is known. The emphasis is on presenting new results on the maximum likelihood estimation of a natural parameter or truncation parameter if one of them is a nuisance parameter. In order to obtain more information on the truncation, the Bayesian approach is also considered. Further, the application to some useful truncated distributions is discussed. The illustrated clarification of the nonregular structure provides researchers and practitioners with a solid basis for further research and applications.

Book Analysis of Doubly Truncated Data

Download or read book Analysis of Doubly Truncated Data written by Achim Dörre and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-13 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces readers to statistical methodologies used to analyze doubly truncated data. The first book exclusively dedicated to the topic, it provides likelihood-based methods, Bayesian methods, non-parametric methods, and linear regression methods. These procedures can be used to effectively analyze continuous data, especially survival data arising in biostatistics and economics. Because truncation is a phenomenon that is often encountered in non-experimental studies, the methods presented here can be applied to many branches of science. The book provides R codes for most of the statistical methods, to help readers analyze their data. Given its scope, the book is ideally suited as a textbook for students of statistics, mathematics, econometrics, and other fields.

Book Multivariate Exponential Families  A Concise Guide to Statistical Inference

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.
