Book Review: Computer age statistical inference: Algorithms, evidence, and data science

Statistical data analysis in the computer age.

Most of our familiar statistical methods, such as hypothesis testing, linear regression, analysis of variance, and maximum likelihood estimation, were designed to be implemented on mechanical calculators. Modern electronic computation has encouraged a host of new statistical methods that require fewer distributional assumptions than their predecessors and can be applied to more complicated stat...

Statistical Evidence and Inference

Understanding the methods used by economists requires some basic terminology regarding the distribution of random variables. The mean of a distribution is simply the arithmetic average of all of the observations. The median is the observation that falls in the middle; half of the observations have values below the median and half are above. Both the mean and the median are measures of the cente...

Review of the Applications of Exponential Family in Statistical Inference

‎In this paper‎, ‎after introducing exponential family and a history of work done by researchers in the field of statistics‎, ‎some applications of this family in statistical inference especially in estimation problem‎,‎statistical hypothesis testing and statistical information theory concepts will be discussed‎.
