Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book introduces 'Astrostatistics' as a subject in its own right with rewarding examples, including work by the authors with galaxy and Gamma Ray Burst data to engage the reader. This includes a comprehensive blending of Astrophysics and Statistics. The first chapter's coverage of preliminary concepts and terminologies for astronomical phenomenon will appeal to both Statistics and Astrophysics readers as helpful context. Statistics concepts covered in the book provide a methodological framework. A unique feature is the inclusion of different possible sources of astronomical data, as well as software packages for converting the raw data into appropriate forms for data analysis. Readers can then use the appropriate statistical packages for their particular data analysis needs. The ideas of statistical inference discussed in the book help readers determine how to apply statistical tests. The authors cover different applications of statistical techniques already developed or specifically introduced for astronomical problems, including regression techniques, along with their usefulness for data set problems related to size and dimension. Analysis of missing data is an important part of the book because of its significance for work with astronomical data. Both existing and new techniques related to dimension reduction and clustering are illustrated through examples. There is detailed coverage of applications useful for classification, discrimination, data mining and time series analysis. Later chapters explain simulation techniques useful for the development of physical models where it is difficult or impossible to collect data. Finally, coverage of the many R programs for techniques discussed makes this book a fantastic practical reference. Readers may apply what they learn directly to their data sets in addition to the data sets included by the authors.

For the exchange of ideas, thoughts or messages to become successful, it is important to have an access to the writer's tools employed in the act of communication. Persona and tone are the basic premises for any communication, viz. they hold the keys to two primary queries, first who is speaking, next in which manner is he/she speaking? This leads naturally to the enquiry regarding what the talk under discussion is about. What conclusions may be drawn about the communicator then? Herein is the scope to learn about the voice of the author, i.e. the poetic self/narrattee that has been projected by the writer for the duration of the happening of the text. The thesis of 2000 is an exploration of such terms as a vehicle resorted to for reaching out to the potential reader. In an urge to try out the points of view derived through brainstorming it is being published as it is without the modifications rendered necessary by the passage of much time, in the meantime. The plans to fill up the lacunae as an where they may be, are being reserved for the second edition that may be launched after the feedback is gained from the reception of this first offering of the findings from the poems of W.H. Auden. (jacket).
