The purpose of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS) is to foster the development and dissemination of the theory and applications of statistics and probability. The Institute was formed at a ...

Fundamental notions such as random variables, distribution functions and probability density functions facilitate the analysis of both discrete and continuous outcomes.

Probability, statistics, reliability and decision with applications in engineering. Probability of events, discrete and continuous random variables, probability density functions and distributions, ...

We consider the estimation of a probability density function by linear smoothing of the observed density. A basis for estimation is obtained by assuming that the ordinates of the true density function ...

By an isometric transformation of density functions, the constrained nature of density functions is explicitly taken into account. Then, we introduce a regression model where the income distribution ...

The course covers the probability, distribution theory and statistical inference needed for advanced courses in statistics and econometrics. Michaelmas term: Probability.

The course covers the probability and distribution theory needed for third year courses in statistics and econometrics.: Events and their probabilities. Random variables. Discrete and continuous ...
