Computational Statistics

Retaining the general organization and style of its predecessor, this new edition continues to serve as a comprehensive guide to modern and classical methods of statistical computing and computational statistics. Approaching the topic in three major parts--optimization, integration, and smoothing--the book includes an overview section in each chapter introduction and step-by-step implementation summaries to accompany the explanations of key methods; expanded coverage of Monte Carlo sampling and MCMC; a chapter on Alternative Viewpoints; a related Web site; new exercises; and more.
