Probability for Electrical and Computer Engineers

CRC Press, 2004

About ten years ago we had the idea to begin a course in probability for students of electrical engineering. Prior to that electrical engineering graduate students at the Naval Postgraduate School specializing in communication, control, and signal processing were given a basic course in probability in another department and then began a course in...

Probability and Information: An Integrated Approach

Cambridge University Press, 2008

Our experience of theworld leads us to conclude that many events are unpredictable and sometimes quite unexpected. These may range from the outcome of seemingly simple games such as tossing a coin and trying to guess whether it will be heads or tails to the sudden collapse of governments or the dramatic fall in prices of shares on the stock market....

Statistical Optics

John Wiley & Sons, 1985

Since the early 1960s it has gradually become accepted that a modern academic training in optics should include a heavy exposure to the concepts of Fourier analysis and linear systems theory. This book is based on the thesis that a similar stage has been reached with respect to the tools of probability and statistics and that some training in the...

Survival Analysis Using S: Analysis of Time-to-Event Data (Chapman & Hall/CRC Texts in Statistical Science)

CRC Press, 2003

Survival Analysis Using S: Analysis of Time-to-Event Data is designed as a text for a one-semester or one-quarter course in survival analysis for upper-level or graduate students in statistics, biostatistics, and epidemiology. Prerequisites are a standard pre-calculus first course in probability and statistics, and a course in applied...

Network Reliability: A Lecture Course (SpringerBriefs in Electrical and Computer Engineering)

Springer, 2019

This introductory book equips the reader to apply the core concepts and methods of network reliability analysis to real-life problems. It explains the modeling and critical analysis of systems and probabilistic networks, and requires only a minimal background in probability theory and computer programming.
