A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Among statisticians the Bayesian approach continues to gain adherents and so it is appropriate that Peter Lee has updated and expanded his successful introduction to the subject in this second edition. An additional chapter has been added which deals with hierarchical methods in Bayesian statistics and gives a fuller treatment of empirical Bayes methods. Another chapter deals with real numerical methods, especially the EM algorithm and Gibbs sampling. Other alterations have been made throughout the text, including the addition of a brief description of Bayes linear methods, and the number of exercises has been considered increased.
