Statistical Methods in Counterterrorism:: Game Theory, Modeling, Syndromic Surveillance, and Biometric Authentication

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: All the data was out there to warn us of this impending attack, why didn`t we see it?` This was a frequently asked question in the weeks and months after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001. In the wake of the attacks, statisticians moved quickly to become part of the national response to the global war on terror. This book is an overview of the emerging research program at the intersection of national security and statistical sciences. A wide range of talented researchers address issues in - Syndromic Surveillance---How do we detect and recognize bioterrorist events? - Modeling and Simulation---How do we better understand and explain complex processes so that decision makers can take the best course of action? - Biometric Authentication---How do we pick the terrorist out of the crowd of faces or better match the passport to the traveler? - Game Theory---How do we understand the rules that terrorists are playing by?

Statistical Methods in Econometrics

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Statistical Methods in Econometrics is appropriate for beginning graduate courses in mathematical statistics and econometrics in which the foundations of probability and statistical theory are developed for application to econometric methodology. Because econometrics generally requires the study of several unknown parameters, emphasis is placed on estimation and hypothesis testing involving several parameters. Accordingly, special attention is paid to the multivariate normal and the distribution of quadratic forms. Lagrange multiplier tests are discussed in considerable detail, along with the traditional likelihood ration and Wald tests. Characteristic functions and their properties are fully exploited. Also asymptotic distribution theory, usuallygiven only cursory treatment, is discussed in detail. The book assumes a working knowledge of advanced calculus (including integral calculus) basic probability and statistics, and linear algebra. Important properties from matrix… [detailed...]

Statistical Methods in Epidemiology (Monographs in Epidemiology and Biostatistics)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This book is an expanded version of the Kahn`s widely used text, An Introduction to Epidemiologic Methods (Oxford, 1983). It provides clear insight into the basic statistical tools used in epidemiology and is written so that those without advanced statistical training can comprehend the ideas underlying the analytical techniques. The authors emphasize the extent to which similar results are obtained from different methods, both simple and complex. To this edition they have added a new chapter on `Comparison of Numerical Results for Various Methods of Adjustment` and also one on `The Primacy of Data Collection.` New topics include the Kaplan-Meier product-limit method and the Cox proportional hazards model for analysis of time-related outcomes. An appendix of data from the Framingham Heart Study is used to illustrate the application of various analytical methods to an identical set of real data and provides source material for student exercises. The text has been updated throughout. [detailed...]

Statistical Models of Shape: Optimisation and Evaluation

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Deformable shape models have wide application in computer vision and biomedical image analysis. This book addresses a key issue in shape modelling: establishment of a meaningful correspondence between a set of shapes. Correspondence has traditionally been established by manual annotation of the data, however this is a time-consuming and error-prone process that does not extend easily to 3D. Thus, almost all applications of statistical shape models have been restricted to 2D objects. This book explores a particular approach to establishing correspondence that casts model-building as an optimisation problem. A general framework is established to find the correspondence that optimises an objective function of model quality. Efficient methods, including implementation details, are presented for manipulating correspondences and for optimising the objective function. Practical example applications are presented for 2D as well as for 3D sets of shapes. [detailed...]
