He derives, from fundamental principles, new statistical methods that are coherent and objective and correct crucial failings of standard methods. Volume 1 presents the foundations and the general theory of statistical inference. Volume 2 applies the theory to derive practical methods for analysing common types of statistical data. The book unifies the wide-ranging, highly original research produced by the author during 1980-2005, most of which has been unpublished until now.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe methodology developed in the book provides a general, systematic and coherent way to analyse statistical problems. The methods apply to all kinds of statistical problem and all types of data; inference about parameters, predictive inference, and nonparametric inference; informative or uninformative prior models; point estimation, interval estimation, hypothesis testing, density estimation, and statistical decision problems. They also enable a unified treatment of robustness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book should be of great interest to everyone who uses or studies statistical inference. The results have profound implications for a wide range of disciplines in which statistical methods are important, including econometrics, decision theory, inductive logic, philosophy of science, psychology, and clinical trials.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Prescience Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47890417025175,"sku":"9780994439611","price":10452.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780994439611.webp?v=1781179931","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/bi-statistical-methods-volume-i-foundations-9780994439611","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
