This very popular textbook, now in its third edition, offers an accessible description of fundamental and more advanced concepts and methods of logistic regression. This edition includes three new chapters and an expanded section about modeling guidelines.
Topics include Bayesian updating, conjugate and reference priors, Bayesian point and interval estimates, Bayesian asymptotics and empirical Bayes methods.
The first accessible introduction to the many various wildlife assessment methods! This book uses a new approach that makes the full range of methods accessible in a way that has not previously been possible.
Despite advances in statistical approaches towards clinical outcome prediction, these innovations are insufficiently utilized in medical research. This book provides information on how modern statistical concepts and regression methods can be applied.
This book offers an introduction to epidemiology suitable for Medical and Public Health Schools in developing and transition countries and in workshops in these countries, based on examples and practical work drawn from the present state of health in Vietnam.
This book provides a groundbreaking introduction to the likelihood inference for correlated survival data via the hierarchical (or h-) likelihood in order to obtain the (marginal) likelihood and to address the computational difficulties in inferences and extensions.
This book examines statistical techniques that are critically important to Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Control (CMC) activities.
This book presents methods for investigating whether relationships are linear or nonlinear and for adaptively fitting appropriate models when they are nonlinear. The book also provides a comparison of adaptive modeling to generalized additive modeling (GAM) and multiple adaptive regression splines (MARS) for univariate outcomes.
This book surveys statistical aspects of designing, analyzing and interpreting results of genome-wide association scans for genetic causes of disease, using unrelated subjects. Covers bioinformatics and data handling methods needed to ready data for analysis.
This book offers an introduction to epidemiology suitable for Medical and Public Health Schools in developing and transition countries and in workshops in these countries, based on examples and practical work drawn from the present state of health in Vietnam.
This book reviews current statistical methods for inferring residual life distribution, including inference methods for mean and median, or quantile, residual life analysis through medical data examples. The concept is extended to competing risks analysis.
This reference book for the analysis of genetic association studies makes an ideal companion to graduate-level students. In addition to providing derivations, the book deploys real examples and simulations to illustrate its step-by-step applications.
This text bridges the gap between standard models, and those where the dynamic structure of the data manifests itself fully. The common thread is stochastic processes. The authors show how martingales and stochastic integrals fit with censored data.
This fresh edition, substantially revised and augmented, provides a unified, in-depth, readable introduction to the multipredictor regression methods most widely used in biostatistics. The examples used, analyzed using Stata, can be applied to other areas.
Statistical Methods for Dynamic Treatment Regimes shares state of the art of statistical methods developed to address questions of estimation and inference for dynamic treatment regimes, a branch of personalized medicine.
This book offers statistical models and methods used to understand human genetics, focusing on modern approaches to association analysis. Numerous examples illustrate key points, and the text includes exercises for students with a broad range of skill levels.
This book details the statistical concepts used in gene mapping. It presents elementary principles of probability and statistics, which are implemented by computational tools based on the R programming language.
This highly readable book describes fundamental and advanced concepts and methods of logistic regression. The 3rd edition includes three new chapters, an updated computer appendix, and an expanded section on modeling guidelines that consider causal diagrams.
This book shows how to model heterogeneity in medical research with covariate adjusted finite mixture models. The areas of application include epidemiology, gene expression data, disease mapping, meta-analysis, neurophysiology and pharmacology.
Building on their previous book on the subject, the authors provide an expanded introduction to using Regression to analyze ecological data. As with the earlier book, real data sets from postgraduate ecological studies or research projects are used throughout.
This book presents models and statistical methods for the analysis of recurrent event data. More general intensity-based models are also considered, as well as simpler models that focus on rate or mean functions.
This book provides a practical introduction to analyzing ecological data using real data sets. It features 17 case studies covering topics ranging from terrestrial ecology to marine biology and can be used as a template for a reader's own data analysis.
Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping is used to discover the genetic and molecular architecture underlying complex quantitative traits. This illustrated book is a comprehensive guide to the practice of QTL mapping and the use of R/qtl.
This book studies and applies modern flexible regression models for survival data with a special focus on extensions of the Cox model and alternative models with the aim of describing time-varying effects of explanatory variables.
Focuses on applications of demographic models, extending to matrix models for stage-classified populations. This book introduces the life table to describe age-specific mortality, and develops theory for stable populations and the rate of population increase. It also introduces reproductive value and the stable equivalent population.
This book provides the foundations of likelihood, Bayesian and MCMC methods in the context of genetic analysis of quantitative traits. Effort has been made to relate biological to statistical parameters throughout, and extensive examples are included to illustrate the arguments.
This book is for statistical practitioners, particularly those who design and analyze studies for survival and event history data. Building on recent developments motivated by counting process and martingale theory, it shows the reader how to extend the Cox model to analyze multiple/correlated event data using marginal and random effects.
Survival data or more general time-to-event data occur in many areas, including medicine, biology, engineering, economics, and demography, but previously standard methods have requested that all time variables are univariate and independent. As the field is rather new, the concepts and the possible types of data are described in detail.
