Description
Springer Nature Customer Service Center GmbH All of Statistics by Larry Wasserman
Taken literally the title All of Statistics is an exaggeration. But in spirit the title is apt as the book does cover a much broader range of topics than a typical introductory book on mathematical statistics. This book is for people who want to learn probability and statistics quickly. It is suitable for graduate or advanced undergraduate students in computer science mathematics statistics and related disciplines. The book includes modern topics like non-parametric curve estimation bootstrapping and classification topics that are usually relegated to follow-up courses. The reader is presumed to know calculus and a little linear algebra. No previous knowledge of probability and statistics is required. Statistics data mining and machine learning are all concerned with collecting and analysing data.show more
