This text develops the necessary background in probability theory underlying diverse treatments of stochastic processes and their wide-ranging applications. In this second edition, the text has bee...
The text gives a concise introduction into fundamental concepts in statistics. Chapter 1: Short exposition of probability theory, using generic examples. Chapter 2: Estimation in theory and practic...
This updated second edition broadens the explanation of rotational kinematics and dynamics -- the most important aspect of rigid body motion in three-dimensional space and a topic of much greater c...
This textbook introduces Python and its programming through a multitude of clearly presented examples and worked-out exercises. Based on a course taught to undergraduate students of mathematics, sc...
This book offers a modern and accessible introduction to Statistical Inference, the science of inferring key information from data. Aimed at beginning undergraduate students in mathematics, it pres...
This essentially self-contained, deliberately compact, and user-friendly textbook is designed for a first, one-semester course in statistical signal analysis for a broad audience of students in eng...

The subject of this book is the reasoning under uncertainty based on sta tistical evidence, where the word reasoning is taken to mean searching for arguments in favor or against particular hypothes...
The subject of the book is an approach to the modeling of and the reasoning under uncertainty. It develops the Dempster-Shafer Theory as a theory of the reliability of reasoning with uncertain argu...
In this book the consequent use of probability theory is proposed for handling uncertainty in expert systems. It is shown that methods violating this suggestion may have dangerous consequences (e.g...
Actuaries and researchers working in risk management and premium pricing will find this book particularly interesting. Graduate-level probability theory, stochastic analysis and statistics are requ...

According to Leo Breiman (1968), probability theory has a right and a left hand. The right hand refers to rigorous mathematics, and the left hand refers to 'pro- bilistic thinking'. The combination...
This textbook is devoted to Combinatorics and Graph Theory, which are cornerstones of Discrete Mathematics. Every section begins with simple model problems. Following their detailed analysis, the r...
Because permutation tests and measures are distribution-free, do not assume normality, and do not rely on squared deviations among sample values, they are currently being applied in a wide variety ...

Debora Mahlke received her Ph.D. in Mathematics from the Technische Universität Darmstadt where she currently works as a postdoctoral research associate.
The main purpose of this book is to provide a simple and accessible introduction to the mixed finite element method as a fundamental tool to numerically solve a wide class of boundary value problem...
This textbook explains the meaning of heat and work and the definition of energy and energy systems. It describes the constructive role of entropy growth and makes the case that energy matters, but...

Computing elementary functions: A new approach for achieving high accuracy and good performance.- Fast elementary function algorithms for 370 machines.- A new arithmetic for scientific computation....
Warum kann man einen Raum nicht mit einem Kühlschrank abkühlen? Oder: Die Kunst ein Steak richtig zu braten. 50 thermofluiddynamische Alltagsphänomene werden nach folgendem Schema einheitlich behan...
This book presents the relevant consequences of recently discovered and interdisciplinary phenomena, triggered by local mechanical instabilities. In particular, it looks at emissions from nano-scal...
This volume collects ten surveys on the modeling, simulation, and applications of active particles using methods ranging from mathematical kinetic theory to nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. T...
