An outgrowth of the 12
th
International Conference on Applied Stochastic Models and Data Analysis, this book is a collection of invited chapters presenting recent developments in the field of data analysis, with applications to reliability and inference, data mining, bioinformatics, lifetime data, and neural networks.
Emphasized throughout the volume are new methods with the potential for solving real-world problems in various areas, including data mining and text mining, information theory and statistical applications, asymptotic behaviour of stochastic processes and random fields, bioinformatics and Markov chains, life table data, survival analysis, and risk in household insurance, neural networks and self-organizing maps, parametric and nonparametric statistics, and statistical theory and methods.
Advances in Data Analysis
is a useful reference for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in statistics, mathematics, engineering, economics, social science, bioengineering, and bioscience.
