A "health disparity" refers to a higher burden of illness, injury,
disability, or mortality experienced by one group relative to
another. These disparities may be due to many factors including
age, income, race, etc. This book will focus on their estimation,
ranging from classical approaches including the quantification of a
disparity, to more formal modelling, to modern approaches involving
more flexible computational approaches. Features: * Presents an
overview of methods and applications of health disparity estimation
* First book to synthesize research in this field in a unified
statistical framework * Covers classical approaches, and builds to
more modern computational techniques * Includes many worked
examples and case studies using real data * Discusses available
software for estimation The book is designed primarily for
researchers and graduate students in biostatistics, data science,
and computer science. It will also be useful to many quantitative
modelers in genetics, biology, sociology, and epidemiology.
