John Wiley & Sons, 2010

This book is designed to introduce biologists, clinicians and computational researchers to fundamental data analysis principles, techniques and tools for supporting the discovery of biomarkers and the implementation of diagnostic/prognostic systems.

The focus of the book is on how fundamental statistical and data mining approaches...

Case Studies in Reliability and Maintenance (Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics)

John Wiley & Sons, 2003

For both the manufacturer and the purchaser, reliability is one of the most important characteristics defining the quality of a product or system. High reliability is achieved through design efforts, choice of materials and other inputs, production, quality assurance efforts, proper maintenance, and many related decisions and...

Geographically Weighted Regression: The Analysis of Spatially Varying Relationships

John Wiley & Sons, 2002

Geographical Weighted Regression (GWR) is a new local modelling technique for analysing spatial analysis. This technique allows local as opposed to global models of relationships to be measured and mapped. This is the first and only book on this technique, offering comprehensive coverage on this new 'hot' topic in spatial...

Graphics of Large Datasets: Visualizing a Million (Statistics and Computing)

Springer, 2006

Graphics are great for exploring data, but how can they be used for looking at the large datasets that are commonplace to-day? This book shows how to look at ways of visualizing large datasets, whether large in numbers of cases or large in numbers of variables or large in both. Data visualization is useful for data cleaning, exploring data,...

Statistical Mechanics

John Wiley & Sons, 1987

Unlike most other texts on the subject, this clear, concise introduction to the theory of microscopic bodies treats the modern theory of critical phenomena. Provides up-to-date coverage of recent major advances, including a self-contained description of thermodynamics and the classical kinetic theory of gases, interesting applications such as...

Biometric User Authentication for IT Security: From Fundamentals to Handwriting (Advances in Information Security)

Springer, 2005

Biometric user authentication techniques have evoked an enormous interest by science, industry and society in the recent past. Scientists and developers have constantly pursued the technology for automated determination or confirmation of the identity of subjects based on measurements of physiological or behavioral traits of humans. Many biometric...

Statistical Methods in Counterterrorism: Game Theory, Modeling, Syndromic Surveillance, and Biometric Authentication

Springer, 2006

"Counterterrorism is an important research area for national security and defense, and an area where statisticians can provide insights and tools to improve the standard practice. As funding and governmental interest in these areas continues to grow, this book will provide a stepping stone for those interested in this emerging area of...

Networks: Optimisation and Evolution (Cambridge Series in Statistical and Probabilistic Mathematics)

Cambridge University Press, 2007

Point-to-point vs. hub-and-spoke. Questions of network design are real and involve many billions of dollars. Yet little is known about optimizing design - nearly all work concerns optimizing flow assuming a given design. This foundational book tackles optimization of network structure itself, deriving comprehensible and realistic design principles....

25 Recipes for Getting Started with R

O'Reilly, 2011

R is a powerful tool for statistics, graphics, and statistical programming. It is used by tens of thousands of people daily to perform serious statistical analyses. It is a free, open source system whose implementation is the collective accomplishment of many intelligent, hard-working people. There are more than 2,000 available add-ons, and R...

Advanced Statistical Steganalysis (Information Security and Cryptography)

Springer, 2010

Steganography and steganalysis, the hiding and detection of a covert payload within an innocent cover object, started to receive attention from the computer science, engineering, and mathematics communities in the 1990s. At first the problems were not clearly defined, but proper statistical foundations were proposed and mathematical...
