Description for Fractal-Based Point Processes
Hardcover. This book addresses the systematic analysis, modeling, and synthesis of integrated fractal and fractal-rate point processes in a rigorous but useful manner. Fractal and fractal-rate point processes exhibit both the scaling properties of fractals, and the discrete nature of random point processes. Series: Wiley Series in Probability and Statistics. Num Pages: 626 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBMX. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 242 x 167 x 39. Weight in Grams: 1034.
An integrated approach to fractals and point processes
This publication provides a complete and integrated presentation of the fields of fractals and point processes, from definitions and measures to analysis and estimation. The authors skillfully demonstrate how fractal-based point processes, established as the intersection of these two fields, are tremendously useful for representing and describing a wide variety of diverse phenomena in the physical and biological sciences. Topics range from information-packet arrivals on a computer network to action-potential occurrences in a neural preparation.
The authors begin with concrete and key examples of fractals and ... Read more

Reviews for Fractal-Based Point Processes
"The style of text is practical and informal with a distinct engineering approach." (Zentralblatt Math) "It is apparent that the authors are truly at home in their field…will certainly prove valuable to scientists working in many distinct fields." (Journal of the American Statistical Association, March 2007) "...an excellent exposition of a cutting-edge topic, and will be ... Read more
