The book is heavily oriented to computation and hands-on approaches so readers understand each step of the programming. Another dimension of this book is in parallel coverage of both Bayesian and frequentist approaches to statistical inference. It avoids taking sides on the classical vs. Bayesian paradigms, and many examples in this book are solved using both methods. The results are then compared and commented upon. Readers have the choice of MATLAB® for classical data analysis and WinBUGS\/OpenBUGS for Bayesian data analysis. Every chapter starts with a box highlighting what is covered in that chapter and ends with exercises, a list of software scripts, datasets, and references.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEngineering Biostatistics: An Introduction using MATLAB® and WinBUGS\u003c\/i\u003e also includes:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eparallel coverage of classical and Bayesian approaches, where appropriate\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003esubstantial coverage of Bayesian approaches to statistical inference\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ematerial that has been classroom-tested in an introductory statistics course in bioengineering over several years\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eexercises at the end of each chapter and an accompanying website with full solutions and hints to some exercises, as well as additional materials and examples\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eEngineering Biostatistics: An Introduction using MATLAB® and WinBUGS\u003c\/i\u003e can serve as a textbook for introductory-to-intermediate applied statistics courses, as well as a useful reference for engineers interested in biostatistical approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e   \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e BRANI VIDAKOVIC, PhD,\u003c\/b\u003e is a Professor in the School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE) at Georgia Institute of Technology and Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology\/Emory University.
