Optimal Statistical Decisions

Beschreibung

This paperback edition of a proven classic and the latest edition to the prestigious Wiley Classics Library provides a thorough discussion in the theory and methodology of optimal statistical decisions. While the content does not include the computational advances that have become so popular and well used today, neither does it neglect what purposes are served by those computations. Of particular note is the fact that Bayesian and sequential decision problems are explained from the bottom-up with great care and clarity.
