Description

This e-book presents a unified approach for doing mathematical statistics with Mathematica. This live real-time e-book uses Mathematica and the mathStatica software to bring mathematical statistics to life, with hundreds of examples, animations and illustrations. Mathematical Statistics with Mathematica is an ideal companion for researchers and students in statistics, econometrics, engineering, physics, psychometrics, economics, finance, biometrics and the social sciences, across both the pure and applied domains. The professional statistician will be able to tackle tricky multivariate distributions, generating functions, inversion theorems, symbolic maximum likelihood estimation, unbiased estimation, and the checking and correcting of textbook formulae.
