Two introductory chapters discuss the importance of statistical models in applied quantitative research and the central role of the likelihood function. The rest of the book is divided into three parts. The first describes likelihood-based inference from a frequentist viewpoint. Properties of the maximum likelihood estimate, the score function, the likelihood ratio and the Wald statistic are discussed in detail. In the second part, likelihood is combined with prior information to perform Bayesian inference. Topics include Bayesian updating, conjugate and reference priors, Bayesian point and interval estimates, Bayesian asymptotics and empirical Bayes methods. Modern numerical techniques for Bayesian inference are described in a separate chapter. Finally two more advanced topics, model choice and prediction, are discussed both from a frequentist and a Bayesian perspective. A comprehensive appendix covers the necessary prerequisites in probability theory, matrix algebra, mathematical calculus, and numerical analysis. 000696185 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000696185 650_0 $$aMathematical statistics. 000696185 650_0 $$aBayesian statistical decision theory. 000696185 650_0 $$aEstimation theory. 000696185 7001_ $$aSabanés Bové, Daniel,$$eauthor. 000696185 7001_ $$iexpanded version of (work)$$aHeld, Leonhard.$$tMethoden der statistischen Inferenz. 000696185 77608 $$cOriginal$$z9783642378867$$z3642378862 000696185 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000696185 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-37887-4$$zOnline Access 000696185 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:696185$$pGLOBAL_SET 000696185 980__ $$aEBOOK 000696185 980__ $$aBIB 000696185 982__ $$aEbook 000696185 983__ $$aOnline 000696185 994__ $$a92$$bISE
