Advances in computation and the fast and cheap computational facilities now available to
statisticians have had a significant impact upon statistical research, and especially the …

The Wiley-Interscience Paperback Series consists of selected books that have been made
more accessible to consumers in an effort to increase global appeal and general circulation …

We discuss the use of standard logistic regression techniques to estimate hazard rates and
survival curves from censored data. These techniques allow the statistician to use …

Survival analysis, the analysis of failure time data, is a rapid developing area and a number
of books on the topic have been published in last twenty-five years. However, all of these …

In the context of competing risks the Kaplan—Meier estimator is often unsuitable for
summarizing failure time data. We discuss some alternative descriptive methods including …

Maintaining the excellent features that made the first edition so popular, this outstanding
reference/text presents the only comprehensive treatment of the theory of point processes …

We discuss the estimation of hazard rates under random censoring with the kernel method.
Two practically relevant problems that occur when applying unmodified kernel estimators …

Response time (RT) is ubiquitous in experimental psychology. It is perhaps the most
important measure used to investigate hypotheses about mental processing. Fifteen of the …

This paper introduces two new nonparametric estimators for probability density functions
which have support on the non-negative real line. These kernel estimators are based on …

Le fil directeur de ce livre, construit à partir des cours de DESS et de DEA de l'auteur, est la
fiabilité. Son but est de montrer concrètement ce que peut apporter l'étude des processus …
