Statistical Theory & Methods

This practical book presents the main ideas for the analysis of repeated measures and associated designs from a Bayesian viewpoint. It describes many inferential methods for analyzing repeated measures in various scientific areas, especially biostatistics. The author bases all the computing and anal..

This book presents a unified Bayesian approach across traditionally separate families of psychometric models. It shows that Bayesian techniques, as alternatives to conventional approaches, offer distinct and profound advantages in achieving many goals of psychometrics. The book covers foundational p..

This book addresses the applications of extensively used regression models under a Bayesian framework. It emphasizes efficient Bayesian inference through integrated nested Laplace approximations (INLA) and real data analysis using R. The INLA method directly computes very accurate approximations to ..

Bringing together the expertise of 15 contributors from academia and the industry, this book offers an easy-to-read guide to the various facets of benefit-risk assessment in the major stages of pharmaceutical R&D, from early clinical development to late-stage development to regulatory review to post..

Written by a top biostatistics researcher, this is the first book entirely devoted to the statistical design and analysis of biosimilarity and interchangeability of biosimilar products. It includes comparability tests of important quality attributes at critical stages of the manufacturing processes ..

Bivariate Discrete Distributions..

This book provides statisticians with an understanding of the critical challenges currently encountered in oncology trials. Top researchers in academia, government, and the industry present many examples drawn from real trials. The book covers state-of-the-art approaches to the design and analysis o..

Business, government, and industry all need efficient and accurate methods of summarizing and extracting information from the huge amounts of data collected and stored electronically. Thoroughly updated, the second edition of this popular text presents graphical and clustering methods in the same bo..

The methodology used to construct tree structured rules is the focus of this monograph. Unlike many other statistical procedures, which moved from pencil and paper to calculators, this text's use of trees was unthinkable before computers. Both the practical and theoretical sides have been developed ..

Drawing from the authors’ courses on the subject as well as the first author’s more than 30 years working in the pharmaceutical industry, Clinical Trial Methodology emphasizes the importance of statistical thinking in clinical research and presents the methodology as a key component of clinical rese..

This book illustrates the use of effect size measures and corresponding confidence intervals as more informative alternatives to the most basic and widely used significance tests. It provides you with a deep understanding of what happens when these statistical methods are applied in situations far r..
