Buch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Applied statisticians in many fields must frequently analyze time to event data. While the statistical tools presented in this book are applicable to data from medicine, biology, public health, epidemiology, engineering, economics, and demography, the focus here is on applications of the techniques to biology and medicine. The analysis of survival experiments is complicated by issues of censoring, where an individual's life length is known to occur only in a certain period of time, and by truncation, where individuals enter the study only if they survive a sufficient length of time or individuals are included in the study only if the event has occurred by a given date. The use of counting process methodology has allowed for substantial advances in the statistical theory to account for censoring and truncation in survival experiments. This book makes these complex methods more accessible to applied researchers without an advanced mathematical background. The authors present the essence of these techniques, as well as classical techniques not based on counting processes, and apply them to data. Practical suggestions for implementing the various methods are set off in a series of Practical Notes at the end of each section. Technical details of the derivation of the techniques are sketched in a series of Technical Notes. This book will be useful for investigators who need to analyze censored or truncated life time data, and as a textbook for a graduate course in survival analysis. The prerequisite is a standard course in statistical methodology. 556 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The special manifolds of interest in this book are the Stiefel manifold and the Grassmann manifold. Formally, the Stiefel manifold Vk,m is the space of k frames in the m-dimensional real Euclidean space Rm, represented by the set of m x k matrices X such that X' X = I , where Ik is the k x k identity matrix, k and the Grassmann manifold Gk,m-k is the space of k-planes (k-dimensional hyperplanes) in Rm. We see that the manifold Pk,m-k of m x m orthogonal projection matrices idempotent of rank k corresponds uniquely to Gk,m-k. This book is concerned with statistical analysis on the manifolds Vk,m and Pk,m-k as statistical sample spaces consisting of matrices. The discussion is carried out on the real spaces so that scalars, vectors, and matrices treated in this book are all real, unless explicitly stated otherwise. For the special case k = 1, the observations from V1,m and G1,m-l are regarded as directed vectors on a unit sphere and as undirected axes or lines, respectively. There exists a large literature of applications of directional statis tics and its statistical analysis, mostly occurring for m = 2 or 3 in practice, in the Earth (or Geological) Sciences, Astrophysics, Medicine, Biology, Meteo rology, Animal Behavior, and many other fields. Examples of observations on the general Grassmann manifold Gk,m-k arise in the signal processing of radar with m elements observing k targets. 432 pp. Englisch.
