商品描述
The book presents the fundamental concepts from asymptotic statistical inference theory, elaborating on some basic large sample optimality properties of estimators and some test procedures. The most desirable property of consistency of an estimator and its large sample distribution, with suitable normalization, are discussed, the focus being on the consistent and asymptotically normal (CAN) estimators. It is shown that for the probability models belonging to an exponential family and a Cramer family, the maximum likelihood estimators of the indexing parameters are CAN. The book describes some large sample test procedures, in particular, the most frequently used likelihood ratio test procedure. Various applications of the likelihood ratio test procedure are addressed, when the underlying probability model is a multinomial distribution. These include tests for the goodness of fit and tests for contingency tables. The book also discusses a score test and Wald's test, their relationship with the likelihood ratio test and Karl Pearson's chi-square test. An important finding is that, while testing any hypothesis about the parameters of a multinomial distribution, a score test statistic and Karl Pearson's chi-square test statistic are identical.
Numerous illustrative examples of differing difficulty level are incorporated to clarify the concepts. For better assimilation of the notions, various exercises are included in each chapter. Solutions to almost all the exercises are given in the last chapter, to motivate students towards solving these exercises and to enable digestion of the underlying concepts.
The concepts from asymptotic inference are crucial in modern statistics, but are difficult to grasp in view of their abstract nature. To overcome this difficulty, keeping up with the recent trend of using R software for statistical computations, the book uses it extensively, for illustrating the concepts, verifying the properties of estimators and carrying out various test procedures. The last section of the chapters presents R codes to reveal and visually demonstrate the hidden aspects of different concepts and procedures. Augmenting the theory with R software is a novel and a unique feature of the book.
The book is designed primarily to serve as a text book for a one semester introductory course in asymptotic statistical inference, in a post-graduate program, such as Statistics, Bio-statistics or Econometrics. It will also provide sufficient background information for studying inference in stochastic processes. The book will cater to the need of a concise but clear and student-friendly book introducing, conceptually and computationally, basics of asymptotic inference.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書介紹了漸近統計推斷理論的基本概念,詳細闡述了一些基本的大樣本最佳性質的估計量和一些檢定程序。討論了估計量的一致性及其大樣本分佈的最理想性質,並適當地進行標準化,重點在於一致且漸近正態(CAN)估計量。顯示對於屬於指數族和克拉美族的機率模型,指數參數的最大似然估計量是CAN。本書描述了一些大樣本檢定程序,特別是最常用的似然比檢定程序。當基礎機率模型為多項分佈時,涉及了似然比檢定程序的各種應用,包括適合度檢定和列聯表檢定。本書還討論了得分檢定和瓦爾德檢定,及其與似然比檢定和卡爾·皮爾遜的卡方檢定的關係。一個重要的發現是,在檢定有關多項分佈參數的任何假設時,得分檢定統計量和卡爾·皮爾遜的卡方檢定統計量是相同的。
本書包含了多個不同難度的示例,以澄清概念。為了更好地理解這些概念,每章中都包含了各種練習題。幾乎所有練習題的解答都在最後一章中提供,以激勵學生解決這些練習題並幫助消化基礎概念。
漸近推斷的概念在現代統計中至關重要,但由於其抽象性質,難以掌握。為了克服這一困難,跟隨使用R軟體進行統計計算的最新趨勢,本書廣泛使用R軟體來說明概念、驗證估計量的性質以及執行各種檢定程序。每章的最後部分提供R代碼,以揭示和直觀展示不同概念和程序的隱藏方面。將理論與R軟體相結合是本書的一個新穎且獨特的特點。
本書主要設計為研究生課程中漸近統計推斷的單學期入門課程的教科書,例如統計學、生物統計學或計量經濟學。它還將提供足夠的背景信息,以便學習隨機過程中的推斷。本書將滿足對一本簡明但清晰且對學生友好的書籍的需求,從概念和計算上介紹漸近推斷的基礎知識。
