Beschreibung
A completely revised and expanded edition of a classic resource
In the over twenty years since the publication of the SecondEdition of Order Statistics, the theories and applications of thisdynamic field have changed markedly. Meeting the challenges anddemands of today's students and research community, authorsH. A. David and H. N. Nagaraja return with a completely revised andupdated Order Statistics, Third Edition.
Chapters two through nine of this comprehensive volume deal withfinite-sample theory, with individual topics grouped underdistribution theory (chapters two through six) and statisticalinference (chapters seven through nine). Chapters ten and elevencover asymptotic theory for central, intermediate, and extremeorder statistics, representing twice the coverage of this subjectthan the previous edition. New sections include:
* Stochastic orderings
* Characterizations
* Distribution-free prediction intervals
* Bootstrap estimations
* Moving order statistics
* Studentized range
* Ranked-set sampling
* Estimators of tail index
The authors further explain application procedures for manydata-analysis techniques and quality control. An appendix providesa guide to related tables and computer algorithms. Extensiveexercise sets have been updated since the last edition. In spite ofmany eliminations, the total number of references has increasedfrom 1,000 to 1,500.
Expanded coverage of shortcut methods, robust estimation, lifetesting, reliability, L-statistics, and extreme-value theorycomplete this one-of-a-kind resource. Students and researchers oforder statistics will appreciate this updated and thoroughedition.
