Asymptotic Statistical Inference, 1st ed. 2021 A Basic Course Using R
Auteurs : Deshmukh Shailaja, Kulkarni Madhuri
Numerous illustrative examples of differing difficulty level are incorporated to clarify the concepts. For better assimilation of the notions, various exercises are included in each chapter. Solutions to almost all the exercises are given in the last chapter, to motivate students towards solving these exercises and to enable digestion of the underlying concepts.
The concepts from asymptotic inference are crucial in modern statistics, but are difficult to grasp in view of their abstract nature. To overcome this difficulty, keeping up with the recent trend of using R software for statistical computations, the book uses it extensively, for illustrating the concepts, verifying the properties of estimators andcarrying out various test procedures. The last section of the chapters presents R codes to reveal and visually demonstrate the hidden aspects of different concepts and procedures. Augmenting the theory with R software is a novel and a unique feature of the book.The book is designed primarily to serve as a text book for a one semester introductory course in asymptotic statistical inference, in a post-graduate program, such as Statistics, Bio-statistics or Econometrics. It will also provide sufficient background information for studying inference in stochastic processes. The book will cater to the need of a concise but clear and student-friendly book introducing, conceptually and computationally, basics of asymptotic inference.
Madhuri Kulkarni has been working as an Assistant Professor at the Department of Statistics, Savitribai Phule Pune University since 2003. She has taught a variety of courses in the span of 17 years. The list includes programming languages like C and C++, core statistical courses like probability distributions, statistical inference, regression analysis, and applied statistical courses like actuarial statistics, Bayesian inference, reliability theory. She has been using R for teaching the practical and applied courses for more than a decade. She is a recipient of the prestigious U. S. Nair Young Statistician Award. She has completed research projects for Armament Research and Development Establishment (ARDE), Pune, and has also received core research grant for a research project on software reliability from DST-SERB, India in 2018. She writes regularly in English, Hindi and Marathi in her blog. She also shares the e-content developed by her.
