  • Confidence, Likelihood, Probability

    Statistical Inference with Confidence Distributions

    by Tore Schweder, Nils Lid Hjort ...
    Series Book 41 - Cambridge Series in Statistical and Probabilistic Mathematics
    This lively book lays out a methodology of confidence distributions and puts them through their paces. Among other merits, they lead to optimal combinations of confidence from different sources of information, and they can make complex models amenable to objective and indeed prior-free analysis for less subjectively inclined statisticians. The generous mixture of theory, illustrations, ... Read more

  • A Modern Approach to Regression with R

    by Simon Sheather ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book focuses on tools and techniques for building regression models using real-world data and assessing their validity. A key theme throughout the book is that it makes sense to base inferences or conclusions only on valid models. Plots are shown to be an important tool for both building regression models and assessing their validity. We shall see that deciding what to plot and how each plot ... Read more

  • Almost All about Unit Roots

    Foundations, Developments, and Applications

    by In Choi ...
    Series series Themes in Modern Econometrics
    Many economic theories depend on the presence or absence of a unit root for their validity, and econometric and statistical theory undergo considerable changes when unit roots are present. Thus, knowledge on unit roots has become so important, necessitating an extensive, compact, and nontechnical book on this subject. This book is rested on this motivation and introduces the literature on unit ... Read more

    With Applications in Economics and Finance

    Edited by Jun Ma, Mark Wohar ...
    Series series Economics and Finance (R0)
    Nonlinear models have been used extensively in the areas of economics and finance. Recent literature on the topic has shown that a large number of series exhibit nonlinear dynamics as opposed to the alternative--linear dynamics. Incorporating these concepts involves deriving and estimating nonlinear time series models, and these have typically taken the form of Threshold Autoregression (TAR) ... Read more
