An outstanding introduction to the fundamentals of regression analysis-updated and expanded The methods of regression analysis are the most widely used statistical tools for discovering the relationships among variables. This classic text, with its emphasis on clear, thorough presentation of concepts and applications, offers a complete, easily accessible introduction to the fundamentals of regression analysis. Assuming only a basic knowledge of elementary statistics, Applied Regression Analysis, Third Edition focuses on the fitting and checking of both linear and nonlinear regression models, using small and large data sets, with pocket calculators or computers. This Third Edition features separate chapters on multicollinearity, generalized linear models, mixture ingredients, geometry of regression, robust regression, and resampling procedures. Extensive support materials include sets of carefully designed exercises with full or partial solutions and a series of true/false questions with answers. All data sets used in both the text and the exercises can be found on the companion disk at the back of the book. For analysts, researchers, and students in university, industrial, and government courses on regression, this text is an excellent introduction to the subject and an efficient means of learning how to use a valuable analytical tool. It will also prove an invaluable reference resource for applied scientists and statisticians.

Research in statistics education is an emerging field, with much of the work being published in diverse journals across many disciplines. Locating and synthesizing this research is often a challenging task, as is connecting the research literature to practical issues of teaching and assessing students. This book is unique in that it collects, presents, and synthesizes cutting edge research on different aspects of statistical reasoning and applies this research to the teaching of statistics to students at all educational levels. Unlike other books on how to teach statistics, or educational materials to help students learn statistics, this book presents the research foundation on which teaching should be based. The chapters in this volume are written by the today''s leading researchers in statistics education. This volume will prove of great value to mathematics and statistics education researchers, statistics educators, statisticians, cognitive psychologists, mathematics teachers, mathematics and statistics curriculum developers, and quantitative literacy experts in education and government.

This 1971 classic on linear models is once again available--as a Wiley Classics Library Edition. It features material that can be understood by any statistician who understands matrix algebra and bas

Las matemáticas no son sólo una maravillosa herramienta lógica, con una espléndida vida propia condensada en teorías, axiomas, teoremas o proposiciones, o el mejor instrumento creado por los humanos para describir los fenomenos naturales. Son, asimismo, un inmenso universo en el que se pueden llevar a cabo apasionantes aventuras intelectuales, o, si se prefiere, practicar juegos extraordinariamente divertidos y de muy variada dificultad. En este territorio se mueve Ian Stewart, el mas prestigioso divulgador de las matematicas, que nos enfrentara en este libro a retos apasionantes. La teoria de probabilidades aplicada al Monopoly, las estrategias ganadoras en juegos matematicos, por que cada cultura tiene su propio calendario, demostraciones de imposibilidad, por que las tostadas caen siempre del lado de la mantequilla, o cuantos trabajadores fueron necesarios para construir la Gran Piramide de Keops son algunos de los temas que el profesor Stewart aborda y desgrana en las paginas de este libro fascinante.

Many modelling and control of two link flexible manipulators are presented in this book The lumped parameter modelling method and the assumed modes method modelling are reviewed comprehensively The book also reviews the trajectory tracking problem and tip trajectory tracking problem along with the suppression of tip deflection of the links An exponential time varying signal and a chaotic signal are considered as the desired trajectories The identical non identical slave manipulator is synchronised with the controlled master manipulator so that the slave manipulator indirectly follows the desired manipulator

Bajo la dirección de M.a Teresa Herrera. Este es un diccionario que entra dentro de la tipología de los diccionarios históricos, de carácter general, que recoge todo el léxico contenido en 33 textos medievales dedicados al estudio de la anatomia, higiene y patologia humanas y conservados en bibliotecas españolas. De ellos una gran mayoria son ineditos y por consiguiente nunca fueron expurgados desde el punto de vista lexico ni considerados en los estudios historicos de la lengua española. El DETEMA ofrece junto a la interpretacion conceptual el contexto en el que se inserta cada una de las voces estudiadas en todos los textos. La obra referenciada pasara a formar parte del gran Diccionario del Español Medieval, proyecto en vias de ejecucion en el Hispanic Seminary of Medieval Studies de la Universidad de Wisconsin (Madison, EE.UU.). Se trata de una obra de consulta fundamental para filologos e historiadores de la ciencia, tanto por su amplitud como por la variedad del lexico que contiene. Pero dada la envergadura de dicho proyecto se ha considerado conveniente la publicacion aislada de los diccionarios correspondientes a los distintos campos conceptuales para que, ante la inexistencia de un diccionario Historico del español, el estudioso de la lengua española pueda contar lo mas pronto posible con los datos ya extraidos de dichas publicaciones parciales, en este caso, medicas.

The authoritative guide to modeling and solving complex problems with linear programmingextensively revised, expanded, and updated The only book to treat both linear programming techniques and network flows under one cover, Linear Programming and Network Flows, Fourth Edition has been completely updated with the latest developments on the topic. This new edition continues to successfully emphasize modeling concepts, the design and analysis of algorithms, and implementation strategies for problems in a variety of fields, including industrial engineering, management science, operations research, computer science, and mathematics.

This is the second edition of a highly succesful book which has sold nearly 3000 copies world wide since its publication in 1997. Many chapters will be rewritten and expanded due to a lot of progress in these areas since the publication of the first edition. Bernard Silverman is the author of two other books, each of which has lifetime sales of more than 4000 copies. He has a great reputation both as a researcher and an author. This is likely to be the bestselling book in the Springer Series in Statistics for a couple of years.
