Description for Non-Standard Parametric Statistical Inference
Hardback. This research monograph gives a unified view of non-standard estimation problems. It provides an overall mathematical framework, but also draws together and studies in detail a large number of practical problems, previously only treated separately, offering solution methods and numerical procedures for each. Num Pages: 432 pages. BIC Classification: PBT; PBWH. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156. .
This book discusses the fitting of parametric statistical models to data samples. Emphasis is placed on: (i) how to recognize situations where the problem is non-standard when parameter estimates behave unusually, and (ii) the use of parametric bootstrap resampling methods in analyzing such problems. A frequentist likelihood-based viewpoint is adopted, for which there is a well-established and very practical theory. The standard situation is where certain widely applicable regularity conditions hold. However, there are many apparently innocuous situations where standard theory breaks down, sometimes spectacularly. Most of the departures from regularity are described geometrically, with only sufficient mathematical detail ... Read more
