It can also be used in a way thatstresses the more practical uses of statisticaltheory, being more concerned withunderstanding basic statistical concepts andderiving reasonable statistical procedures for avariety of situations, and less concerned withformal optimality investigations.FEATURES Offers new coverage of randomnumber generation, simulation methods,bootstrapping, EM algorithm, p-values, androbustness.Includes new sections on "Logistic Regression"and "Robust Regression"Restructures material for clarity purposesContains updated and expanded Exercises Key Features
