Published in honor of the sixty-fifth birthday of Professor Ingram
Olkin of Stanford University. Part I contains a brief biography of
Professor Olkin and an interview with him discussing his career and
his research interests. Part II contains 32 technical papers
written in Professor Olkin's honor by his collaborators,
colleagues, and Ph.D. students. These original papers cover a
wealth of topics in mathematical and applied statistics, including
probability inequalities and characterizations, multivariate
analysis and association, linear and nonlinear models, ranking and
selection, experimental design, and approaches to statistical
inference. The volume reflects the wide range of Professor Olkin's
interests in and contributions to research in statistics, and
provides an overview of new developments in these areas of
research.
Geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students,
this two-part treatment deals with the foundations of multivariate
analysis as well as related models and applications. Starting with
a look at practical elements of matrix theory, the text proceeds to
discussions of continuous multivariate distributions, the normal
distribution, and Bayesian inference; multivariate large sample
distributions and approximations; the Wishart and other continuous
multivariate distributions; and basic multivariate statistics in
the normal distribution. The second half of the text moves from
defining the basics to explaining models. Topics include regression
and the analysis of variance; principal components; factor analysis
and latent structure analysis; canonical correlations; stable
portfolio analysis; classifications and discrimination models;
control in the multivariate linear model; and structuring
multivariate populations, with particular focus on multidimensional
scaling and clustering. In addition to its value to professional
statisticians, this volume may also prove helpful to teachers and
researchers in those areas of behavioral and social sciences where
multivariate statistics is heavily applied. This new edition
features an appendix of answers to the exercises.
When students, job candidates, business executives, historians and
investors need accurate and detailed information on the development
of any of the world's largest and most influential companies,
direct them to International Directory Of Company Historie
