This book attempts to remedy the situation by expounding a logical and unified approach to the whole subject of data analysis. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis text is intended as a tutorial guide for senior undergraduates and research students in science and engineering. After explaining the basic principles of Bayesian probability theory, their use is illustrated with a variety of examples ranging from elementary parameter estimation to image\u003cbr\u003eprocessing. Other topics covered include reliability analysis, multivariate optimization, least-squares and maximum likelihood, error-propagation, hypothesis testing, maximum entropy and experimental design. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Second Edition of this successful tutorial book contains a new chapter on extensions to the ubiquitous least-squares procedure, allowing for the straightforward handling of outliers and unknown correlated noise, and a cutting-edge contribution from John Skilling on a novel numerical technique\u003cbr\u003efor Bayesian computation called 'nested sampling'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Devinderjit Sivia, John Skilling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.14h x 7.56w x 0.57d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198568322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2006 pg. 33\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDevinderjit Singh Sivia\u003cbr\u003eRutherford Appleton Laboratory\u003cbr\u003eChilton\u003cbr\u003eOxon\u003cbr\u003eOX11 5DJ John Skilling\u003cbr\u003eMaximum Entropy Data Consultants\u003cbr\u003e42 Southgate Street\u003cbr\u003eBury St Edmonds\u003cbr\u003eSuffolk\u003cbr\u003eIP33 2AZ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":39932098871411,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":58.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_67d33d0a-9606-44f6-ac17-7b9727fac0a3.jpg?v=1647789829","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/data-analysis-a-bayesian-tutorial-9780198568322","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
