Den Problemstellungen und Loesungsvorschlagen ist jeweils ein kurzer Lehrtext vorangestellt. Diese Lehrtexte geben die wesentlichen Aussagen der oekonometrischen Theorie fur Eingleichungsmodelle in systematischer Anordnung wieder und vermitteln die in diesem Buch zugrundeliegenden Grundbegriffe sowie die verwendete Notation.

Many historians of insurance have commented on the disconnect between the rise of English life insurance companies in the early eighteenth century and the mathematics behind the sound pricing of life insurance products that was developed at about the same time. Insurance and annuity promoters typically ignored this mathematical work. Bellhouse explores this issue, and shows that the early mathematical work was not motivated by insurance but instead by the fair valuation of life contingent contracts related to property. Even the work of the mathematician James Dodson in the creation of the Equitable Life Assurance Society, offering sound actuarially based premiums, did not change the industry in any significant way. The tipping point was a crisis in 1770 in which the philosopher and mathematician Richard Price, as well as other mathematicians, showed that a dozen or more recently formed annuity societies could not meet their financial obligations and were inviable.

A beautiful, compelling and eye-opening guide to the way we live in Britain today. ______________ How much more do we drink than we should? Why do immigrants come here? How have house prices changed in the past decade? What do we spend our money on? Britain by Numbers answers all these questions and more, vividly bringing our nation to life in new and unexpected ways by showing who lives here, where we work, who we marry, what crimes we commit and much else besides. Beautifully designed and illustrated throughout, it takes the reader on a fascinating journey up and down the land, enriching their understanding of a complex - and contradictory - country.

This report presents the results of a feasibility study on generating high-quality poverty statistics in the Philippines using satellite imagery, geospatial data, and powerful machine-learning algorithms.

Academic Foundation in association with the EPW Research Foundation brings to you the one stop resource for all important economic data on India ! Presenting... India: A Pocket book of Data Series Development of independent India from an agrarian stage to a modern economy began in early 1950s. After the first four decades of planning, India embarked upon a series of economic and financial sector reforms beginning early 1990s. While India has continually been undergoing socio-economic and structural transformation, its economic growth has accelerated in the last about two decades. Since 2004, it has further entered into a higher growth trajectory. This Pocket Book from EPW Research Foundation captures these trends and pattern, from data sets for a variety of social and economic indicators compiled and presented in a compact manner in discrete and continuous annual series. The five major components of data sets are: Macro Economy, Social Sector, Infrastructure, Profile of States and International Comparison. It is a quick and handy reference tool for academics, executives, students and researchers and for anybody interested in the saga of India's development profile.

We live in an age of serial asset bubbles and spectacular busts. Economists, policymakers, central bankers and most people in the financial world have been blindsided by these busts, while investors have lost trillions. Economists argue that bubbles can only be spotted after they burst and that market moves are unpredictable. Yet Marathon Asset Management, a London-based investment firm managing over $50 billion of assets has developed a relatively simple method for identifying and potentially avoiding them: follow the money, or rather the trail of investment. Bubbles whether they affect a whole economy or merely a single industry, tend to attract a splurge of capital spending. Excessive investment drives down returns and leads inexorably to a bust. This was the case with both the technology bubble at the turn of the century and the US housing bubble which followed shortly after. More recently, vast sums have been invested in mining and energy. From an investor's perspective, the trick is to avoid investing in sectors, or markets, where investment spending is unduly elevated and competition is fierce, and to put one's money to work where capital expenditure is depressed, competitive conditions are more favourable and, as a result, prospective investment returns are higher. This capital cycle strategy encourages investors to eschew the simple 'growth' and 'value' dichotomy and identify firms that can deliver superior returns either because capital has been taken out of an industry, or because the business has strong barriers to entry (what Warren Buffett refers to as a 'moat'). Some of Marathon's most successful investments have come from obscure, sometimes niche operations whose businesses are protected from the destructive forces of the capital cycle. Capital Returns is a comprehensive introduction to the theory and practical implementation of the capital cycle approach to investment. Edited and with an introduction by Edward Chancellor, the book brings together 60 of the most insightful reports written between 2002 and 2014 by Marathon portfolio managers. Capital Returns provides key insights into the capital cycle strategy, all supported with real life examples from global brewers to the semiconductor industry - showing how this approach can be usefully applied to different industry conditions and how, prior to 2008, it helped protect assets from financial catastrophe. This book will be a welcome reference for serious investors who looking to maximise portfolio returns over the long run.

This report presents the results of a feasibility study on high-quality poverty statistics in Thailand using satellite imagery, geospatial data, and advanced algorithmic techniques to complement conventional survey methods. The ""leave no one behind"" principle of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development requires appropriate indicators for different segments of a country's population. This entails detailed, granular data on population groups that extend beyond national trends and averages. ADB collaborated with the National Statistical Office of Thailand and the Word Data Lab for the feasibility study, which aimed to enhance the granularity, cost-effectiveness, and compilation of high-quality poverty statistics in Thailand.

Sind bestimmte Parameter der Verteilung einer Zufallsvaria- blen unbekannt, so bieten statistische SchHtzmethoden die M6glichkeit, diese Parameter aus Stichprobenergebnissen zu schHtzen. Unter Parametern versteht man dabei zumeist Mo- mente der Verteilung der betrachteten Zufallsvariablen. 1st das verteilungsgesetz bekannt, so bezeichnet man als Para- meter die in diesem Verteilungsgesetz auftretenden Konstan- ten. Die in diesem Kapitel darzustellenden Problem16sungen basie- ren auf Zufallsst1chproben als Auswahlverfahren fUr die Stichprobenelemente, wodurch die Anwendung der Ergebnisse des Kap1tels 8 erm6gl1cht w1rd. Das Vorgehen beim SchHtzen soll nun gesch1ldert werden. Es sei e ein unbekannter Parameter der Verte1lung der Zufalls- var1ablen. Die SchHtzung dieses Parameters w1rd mit Hilfe e1ner Stichprobenfunktion durchgefuhrt. Jede Stichproben- funktion, die zur SchHtzung eines unbekannten Parameters herangezogen werden kann, heiSt eine SchHtzfunktion fur die- sen Parameter. Sie wird mit 0 bezeichnet. Da 0 von den zu- fallsvariablen X ' --- 'X abhHngig ist, kann man ausfuhrli- 1 n cher schreiben: 0 = D(X, x, ---, X ) oder auch D (X, ---, X ), 1 2 n 1 n n wenn die AbhHngigkeit der SchHtzfunktion vom Stichprobenum- fang hervorgehoben werden soll. Eine AusprHgung d(x, x, --., 1 2 xn) dieser SchHtzfunktion, die-sich aus einer realisierten St1chprobe ergibt, w1rd als NHherungswert des unbekannten Parameters verwendet. S1e heiSt SchHtzwert des Parameters. Man schreibt d(x, ---, x ) = e (lies: d ist SchHtzwert fur e).

In dem vorliegenden statistischen Grundkurs fUr Wirt- schafts- und Sozialwissenschaftler: Wahrscheinlichkeits- theorie und induktive Statistik werden Stoffgebiete be- handelt, die fUr Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaftler zur Standardausbildung im Bereich der statistischen Metho- denlehre gehoren.

Losungswege zu den Aufgaben finden sich dann im Lo- sungsanhang. Die Darstellung im Textteil ist intensiver und stofflich umfassender als Ublicherweise in den Lehrveranstal- tungen der Wirtschafts- und Sozialwissenschaften fUr die Studienanfanger.

This text provides a comprehensive overview of Data Science. With the continued advancement in storage and computing technologies, data science has emerged as one of the most desired fields in driving business decisions. Data science employs techniques and methods from many other fields, such as statistics, mathematics, computer science, and information science. Besides the methods and theories drawn from several fields, data science uses visualization techniques using specially designed big data software and statistical programming language, such as R programming, and Python. Data Science has wide applications in the areas of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The book is divided into four different areas divided into different chapters. These chapters explain the core of Data Science. Part I of the book introduces the field of Data Science, different disciplines it comprises of, and the scope with future outlook and career prospects. This section also explains analytics, business analytics, and business intelligence and their similarities and differences with Data Science. Since the data is at the core of Data science, Part II is devoted to explaining the data, big data, and other features of data. One full chapter is devoted to Data Analysis, creating visuals, pivot table, and other applications using Excel with office 365. Part III explains the statistics behind Data Science. It uses several chapters to explain the statistics and its importance, numerical and data visualization tools and methods, probability, and probability distribution applications in Data Science. Other chapters in the Part III are Sampling, Estimation, and Hypothesis Testing. All these are integral part of Data Science applications. Part IV of the book provides the basics of Machine Learning (ML) and R-statistical software. Data Science has wide applications in the areas of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) and R-statistical software is widely used by data science professionals. The book also outlines a brief history, the body of knowledge, skills and education requirements for Data Scientist and data science professionals. Some statistics on job growth and prospects are also summarized. A career in data science is ranked at the third best job in America for 2020 by Glassdoor, and was ranked the number one best job from 2016-2019.[29]

The convergence of blockchain and Internet of things (IoT) powered by data and artificial intelligence (AI) is on the agenda of several big companies and some of them have already started using its implementations, initiatives, and solutions in various projects. In this book, the author calls the convergence of these three technologies: the blockchain of intelligent things. This book is targeted to help a broad audience, including anyone interested in and responsible for vision, projects, and implementations of blockchain, IoT, and AI in medium-sized companies and large enterprises. This would include business and technology managers, IT professionals, and last but not least, business or technology students, looking to broadening their knowledge and expertise. This book is number two in a series of four books. The first chapters of the book take you from the convergence of blockchain and IoT, via an overview of the most important blockchain of things projects such as IOTA, and the industries, which are heavily being disrupted, into the blockchain of intelligent things, which essentially adds the business value of data science and AI. Further topics you will find in this book include chapters such as required skills, jobs and future, industrial IoT (IIoT) platforms, and opportunities, challenges, and trends of the blockchain of intelligent things. Readers looking for a methodology to engage in blockchain, IoT, and/or AI projects, can find a comprehensive description in my previous book New World Technologies: 2020 and Beyond.
