Description for Parameter Estimation for Scientists and Engineers
Hardcover. Parameter Estimation for Scientists and Engineers discusses estimating parameters of expectation models of statistical observations. It aims to show scientists and engineers, who often are not aware of estimators other than least squares, that statistical parameter estimation has much more to offer than least squares estimation alone. Num Pages: 288 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TBJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 164 x 23. Weight in Grams: 560.
The subject of this book is estimating parameters of expectation models of statistical observations. The book describes the most important aspects of the subject for applied scientists and engineers. This group of users is often not aware of estimators other than least squares. Therefore one purpose of this book is to show that statistical parameter estimation has much more to offer than least squares estimation alone. In the approach of this book, knowledge of the distribution of the observations is involved in the choice of estimators. A further advantage of the chosen approach is that it unifies the underlying theory and ... Read more

Reviews for Parameter Estimation for Scientists and Engineers
“An indispensable tool for scholars and research workers in mathematics and the mathematical sciences.” (Mathematical Reviews, 2009) "Despite its lean size, the book is able to cover many of the techniques and theories in parameter estimation that are core to applied sciences, and so this is certainly a valuable reference for researchers and graduate students alike. The book's exposition ... Read more
