This book draws together contributions from authorities in the field and fills the urgent need to communicate the state of the art to a general statistical audience. Emphasis is placed on practice rather than theory, although fundamental theoretical concepts are discussed. The i…
This text combines stochastic modeling and statistical inference in a variety of standard and less common models, such as point processes, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models, in a clear, thoughtful and succinct manner. The main distinguishing feature of this work is t…
Neoclassical economics assumes that people are highly rational and can reason their way through even the most complex economic problems. In Individual Strategy and Social Structure, Peyton Young argues for a more realistic view in which people have a limited understanding of th…
"Proposing a wide range of mathematical models that are currently used in life sciences may be regarded as a challenge, and that is precisely the challenge that this book takes up. Of course this panoramic study does not claim to offer a detailed and exhaustive view of the many …

This unified survey of the theory of adaptive filtering, prediction, and control focuses on linear discrete-time systems and explores the natural extensions to nonlinear systems. In keeping with the importance of computers to practical applications, the authors emphasize discret…
This book provides a unified mathematical approach, based on diffusion-reaction equations, for the modeling and simulation of spatial and spatiotemporal patterning in ecological and eco-epidemiological systems. It features a special section that introduces relevant numerical tec…
Probabilistic modelling is the most cost-effective means of performance and reliability evaluation of complex dynamic systems. This self-contained text offers an introduction to the tools and applications used in probabilistic modelling.
Probabilistic modelling is the most cost-effective means of performance and reliability evaluation of complex dynamic systems. This self-contained text will be welcomed by students and teachers for its no-nonsense treatment of the basic results and examples of their application.…
