Zusammenfassung:Clarifies modern data analysis through nonparametric density estimation for a complete working knowledge of the theory and methodsFeaturing a thoroughly revised presentation, Multivariate Density Estimation: Theory, Practice, and Visualization, Second Editionmaintains an intuitive approach to the underlying methodology and supporting theory of density estimation. Including new material and updated research in each chapter, the Second Edition presents additional clarification of theoretical opportunities, new algorithms, and up-to-date coverage of the unique challenges presented in the field of data analysis.The new edition focuses on the various density estimation techniques and methods that can be used in the field of big data. Defining optimal nonparametric estimators, the Second Editiondemonstrates the density estimation tools to use when dealing with various multivariate structures in univariate, bivariate, trivariate, and quadrivariate data analysis. Continuing to illustrate the major concepts in the context of the classical histogram, Multivariate Density Estimation: Theory, Practice, and Visualization, Second Editionalso features:Over 150 updated figures to clarify theoretical results and to show analyses of real data setsAn updated presentation of graphic visualization using computer software such as RA clear discussion of selections of important research during the past decade, including mixture estimation, robust parametric modeling algorithms, and clusteringMore than 130 problems to help readers reinforce the main concepts and ideas presentedBoxed theorems and results allowing easy identification of crucial ideasMultivariate Density Estimation: Theory, Practice, and Visualization, Second Editionis an ideal reference for theoretical and applied statisticians, practicing engineers, as well as readers interested in the theoretical aspects of nonparametric estimation and the application of these methods to multivariate data. The Second Editionis also useful as a textbook for introductory courses in kernel statistics, smoothing, advanced computational statistics, and general forms of statistical distributions. David W. Scott, PhD,is Noah Harding Professor in the Department of Statistics at Rice University. The author of over 100 published articles, papers, and book chapters, Dr. Scott is also Fellow of the American Statistical Association (ASA) and the Institute of Mathematical Statistics. He is recipient of the ASA Founder’s Award and the Army Wilks Award. His research interests include computational statistics, data visualization, and density estimation. Dr. Scott is also Coeditor of Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Computational Statisticsand previous Editor of the Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics.
