Model Choice in Nonnested Families: SpringerBriefs in Statistics

Autor Basilio de Bragança Pereira, Carlos Alberto de Bragança Pereira
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 ian 2017
This book discusses the problem of model choice when the statistical models are separate, also called nonnested. Chapter 1 provides an introduction, motivating examples and a general overview of the problem. Chapter 2 presents the classical or frequentist approach to the problem as well as several alternative procedures and their properties. Chapter 3 explores the Bayesian approach, the limitations of the classical Bayes factors and the proposed alternative Bayes factors to overcome these limitations. It also discusses a significance Bayesian procedure. Lastly, Chapter 4 examines the pure likelihood approach. Various real-data examples and computer simulations are provided throughout the text.

Recenzii

“The authors are recognized experts teaching statistics in Brazil universities, and in the book … they present various methods of choosing between competing families of regression models, for instance, exponential versus lognormal models. … The monograph is interesting, innovative, and can serve in search for adequate models in applied statistical analysis.” (Stan Lipovetsky, Technometrics, Vol. 59 (4), November, 2017)
