Description for Frontiers of Statistical Decision Making and Bayesian Analysis: In Honor of James O. Berger
Hardback. As research into this subject diversifies, keeping up to date with the frontiers of the discipline becomes increasingly difficult. This book covers most of the current research challenges and opportunities, including Bayesian inference and nonparametric Bayes. Editor(s): Chen, Ming-Hui; Muller, Peter; Sun, Dongchu; Ye, Keying; Dey, Dipak K. Num Pages: 631 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 34. Weight in Grams: 2400.
Research in Bayesian analysis and statistical decision theory is rapidly expanding and diversifying, making it increasingly more difficult for any single researcher to stay up to date on all current research frontiers. This book provides a review of current research challenges and opportunities. While the book can not exhaustively cover all current research areas, it does include some exemplary discussion of most research frontiers. Topics include objective Bayesian inference, shrinkage estimation and other decision based estimation, model selection and testing, nonparametric Bayes, the interface of Bayesian and frequentist inference, data mining and machine learning, methods for categorical and spatio-temporal data ...
