Description for Bayesian Nonparametric Data Analysis
Hardback. Series: Springer Series in Statistics. Num Pages: 193 pages, 49 black & white illustrations, 10 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PBT; UFM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 246 x 163 x 17. Weight in Grams: 456.
This book reviews nonparametric Bayesian methods and models that have proven useful in the context of data analysis. Rather than providing an encyclopedic review of probability models, the book's structure follows a data analysis perspective. As such, the chapters are organized by traditional data analysis problems. In selecting specific nonparametric models, simpler and more traditional models are favored over specialized ones. The discussed methods are illustrated with a wealth of examples, including applications ranging from stylized examples to case studies from recent literature. The book also includes an extensive discussion of computational methods and details on their implementation. R code ... Read more
