Abstract
Mathematical Statistics with Applications provides a calculus-based theoretical introduction to mathematical statistics while emphasizing interdisciplinary applications as well as exposure to modern statistical computational and simulation concepts that are not covered in other textbooks. Includes the Jackknife, Bootstrap methods, the EM algorithms and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. Prior probability or statistics knowledge is not required. ? Step-by-step procedure to solve real problems, making the topic more accessible ? Exercises blend theory and modern applications ? Practical, real-world chapter projects ? Provides an optional section in each chapter on using Minitab, SPSS and SAS commands ? Student solutions manual, instructors manual and data disk available

CHAPTER 12 – Random Effects Analysis

W.D. Penny, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the statistical inferences obtained from functional imaging studies involving many subjects are discussed and implemented using the computationally efficient summary statistic approach, which is mathematically equivalent to the more computationally demanding maximum likelihood procedure.

Equation of state calculations by fast computing machines

TL;DR: In this article, a modified Monte Carlo integration over configuration space is used to investigate the properties of a two-dimensional rigid-sphere system with a set of interacting individual molecules, and the results are compared to free volume equations of state and a four-term virial coefficient expansion.

Stochastic Relaxation, Gibbs Distributions, and the Bayesian Restoration of Images

TL;DR: The analogy between images and statistical mechanics systems is made and the analogous operation under the posterior distribution yields the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate of the image given the degraded observations, creating a highly parallel ``relaxation'' algorithm for MAP estimation.

Monte Carlo Sampling Methods Using Markov Chains and Their Applications

TL;DR: A generalization of the sampling method introduced by Metropolis et al. as mentioned in this paper is presented along with an exposition of the relevant theory, techniques of application and methods and difficulties of assessing the error in Monte Carlo estimates.
Book

Bootstrap Methods and Their Application

TL;DR: In this paper, a broad and up-to-date coverage of bootstrap methods, with numerous applied examples, developed in a coherent way with the necessary theoretical basis, is given, along with a disk of purpose-written S-Plus programs for implementing the methods described in the text.
