Firstly, it discusses the importance of statistical models in applied quantitative research and the central role of the likelihood function, describing likelihood-based inference from a frequentist viewpoint, and exploring the properties of the maximum likelihood estimate, the score function, the likelihood ratio and the Wald statistic. In the second part of the book, likelihood is combined with prior information to perform Bayesian inference. Topics include Bayesian updating, conjugate and reference priors, Bayesian point and interval estimates, Bayesian asymptotics and empirical Bayes methods. It includes a separate chapter on modern numerical techniques for Bayesian inference, and also addresses advanced topics, such as model choice and prediction from frequentist and Bayesian perspectives. This revised edition of the book “Applied Statistical Inference” has been expanded to include new material on Markov models for time series analysis. It also features a comprehensive appendix covering the prerequisites in probability theory, matrix algebra, mathematical | 出版日期 | Textbook 2020Latest edition | 关键词 | Bayesian inference; likelihood inference; model choice; maximum likelihood estimate; frequentist inferen | 版次 | 2 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-662-60792-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-662-60794-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-662-60792-3Series ISSN 1431-8776 Series E-ISSN 2197-5671 | issn_series | 1431-8776 | copyright | Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2020 |
