The Statistical Analysis of Discrete Data (Springer Texts in Statistics)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The Statistical Analysis of Discrete Data provides an up-to-date introduction to methods for analyzing discrete data. The text covers both single-sample problems and problems with structured means which can be studied via loglinear and logistic models. Standard estimation and testing formulations are joined by formulations in terms of multiple comparisons, simultaneous interval construction, and ranking and selection. Where possible, connections with linear model theory for continuous responses are exploited to emphasize the relationships between the two areas. Recent research in areas such as graphical models for contingency tabels, Bayes and related estimation for loglinear models, and diagnostics for logistic regression is presented. Problems at the end of each chapter provide opportunities to both try out methods in the text on data from a wide variety of fields and to explore extensions of the material covered. The book is intended as a textbook for researchers both in- and outside of the statistics field who encounter discrete data.
