  1. Statistics of Medical Imaging

    By Tianhu Lei

    Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Interdisciplinary Statistics

    Statistical investigation into technology not only provides a better understanding of the intrinsic features of the technology (analysis), but also leads to an improved design of the technology (synthesis). Physical principles and mathematical procedures of medical imaging technologies have been...

  5. Dynamic Prediction in Clinical Survival Analysis

    By Hans van Houwelingen, Hein Putter

    Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Monographs on Statistics & Applied Probability

    There is a huge amount of literature on statistical models for the prediction of survival after diagnosis of a wide range of diseases like cancer, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease. Current practice is to use prediction models based on the Cox proportional hazards model and to...

  6. Integrated Microsystems

    Electronics, Photonics, and Biotechnology

    Edited by Krzysztof Iniewski

    Series: Devices, Circuits, and Systems

    As rapid technological developments occur in electronics, photonics, mechanics, chemistry, and biology, the demand for portable, lightweight integrated microsystems is relentless. These devices are getting exponentially smaller, increasingly used in everything from video games, hearing aids, and...

  7. Analysis of Questionnaire Data with R

    By Bruno Falissard

    While theoretical statistics relies primarily on mathematics and hypothetical situations, statistical practice is a translation of a question formulated by a researcher into a series of variables linked by a statistical tool. As with written material, there are almost always differences between the...

  8. The R Primer

    By Claus Thorn Ekstrøm

    Newcomers to R are often intimidated by the command-line interface, the vast number of functions and packages, or the processes of importing data and performing a simple statistical analysis. The R Primer provides a collection of concise examples and solutions to R problems frequently encountered...

  9. Bayesian Analysis Made Simple

    An Excel GUI for WinBUGS

    By Phil Woodward

    Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Biostatistics Series

    Although the popularity of the Bayesian approach to statistics has been growing for years, many still think of it as somewhat esoteric, not focused on practical issues, or generally too difficult to understand. Bayesian Analysis Made Simple is aimed at those who wish to apply Bayesian methods but...

  10. Adaptive and Flexible Clinical Trials

    By Richard Chin

    Adaptive clinical trial designs, unlike traditional fixed clinical trial designs, enable modification of studies in response to the data generated in the course of the trial. This often results in studies that are substantially faster, more efficient, and more powerful. Recent developments in...
