R code is woven throughout the text, and there are a large number of examples and problems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn important goal has been to make the topics accessible to a wide audience, with little overt reliance on measure theory.  A typical semester course consists of Chapters 1-6 (likelihood-based estimation and testing, Bayesian inference, basic asymptotic results) plus selections from M-estimation and related testing and resampling methodology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDennis Boos and Len Stefanski are professors in the Department of Statistics at North Carolina State. Their research has been eclectic, often with a robustness angle, although Stefanski is also known for research concentrated on measurement error, including a co-authored book on non-linear measurement error models. In recent years the authors have jointly worked on variable selection methods. ​\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2015-03-06\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781489987938\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4614-4818-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 568\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45937792123020,"sku":"9781489987938","price":143.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781489987938.jpg?v=1775732365","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781489987938","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
