โœฆ Synopsis


This detailed introduction to distribution theory is designed as a text for the probability portion of the first year statistical theory sequence for Master's and PhD students in statistics, biostatistics, and econometrics. The text uses no measure theory, requiring only a background in calculus and linear algebra. Topics range from the basic distribution and density functions, expectation, conditioning, characteristic functions, cumulants, convergence in distribution and the central limit theorem to more advanced concepts such as exchangeability, models with a group structure, asymptotic approximations to integrals and orthogonal polynomials. An appendix gives a detailed summary of the mathematical definitions and results that are used in the book Vol. 1. Basic probability and statistics -- v. 2. Markov chains : a primer in random processes and their applications

The inclusion of the word "Basic" in the title is misleading; it is basic only if you have a thorough grounding in differential and integral calculus and combinatorics. With this background, you will be able to understand the two main sections on "Basic Probability" and "Basic Statistics." The cov

Probability and statistics are as much about intuition and problem solving as they are about theorem proving. Consequently, students can find it very difficult to make a successful transition from lectures to examinations to practice because the problems involved can vary so much in nature. Since th
