Their importance relies on the fact that they generalize several previous models and provide new possibilities to handle real problems. For reliability scientists and engineers, this book comes with a new method for studying systems reliability and it offers modelling and estimation tools. As for the biologists, this work offers them a more adapted model for DNA analysis, namely the hidden semi-Markov model, which is more flexible than the hidden Markov models, extensively used in this field. Moreover, the hidden semi-Markov framework can be used in many other applications, such as reliability, signal treatment, speech or image processing, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2008-08-28\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387731711\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-0-387-73173-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 226\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45379035857036,"sku":"9780387731711","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387731711.jpg?v=1775730086","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780387731711","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
