Predictive Inference

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents Seymour Geisser's views on predictive or observable inference and its advantages over parametric inference. It focuses on the predictive applications of the Bayesian approach. The book also presents predictive analyses that have no real parametric analogues.

Rezensionen

"...this monograph is a very welcome attempt to shift back the main emphasis of statistics from parametric estimation and testing to prediction which, as noted by the author, was originally the earliest and most prealent form of statistical inference...I am sure all statisticians and students of statistics with an open mind will enjoy reading it and, hopefully will appreciate the beauty and usefulness of a coherent predictive view of their subject."
-Mathematical Reviews

"Predictive Inference: An Introduction is rich both in the coverage of topics and in applications...The monograph is addressed to statisticians and research workers who are intrested in the predictive approach. Its major contribution is likely to be as a resource for persons interested in trying predictive inference in some application."
