A milestone in the published literature on the subject, this first-ever Handbook of Beta Distribution and Its Applications clearly enumerates the properties of beta distributions and related mathematical notions. It summarizes modern applications in a variety of fields, reviews up-and-coming progress from the front lines of statistical research and practice, and demonstrates the applicability of beta distributions in fields such as economics, quality control, soil science, and biomedicine. The book discusses the centrality of beta distributions in Bayesian inference, the beta-binomial model and applications of the beta-binomial distribution, and applications of Dirichlet integrals.
This important book provides an up-to-date comprehensive and down-to-earth survey of the theory and practice of extreme value distributions — one of the most prominent success stories of modern applied probability and statistics. Originated by E J Gumbel in the early forties as a tool for predicting floods, extreme value distributions evolved during the last 50 years into a coherent theory with applications in practically all fields of human endeavor where maximal or minimal values (the so-called extremes) are of relevance. The book is of usefulness both for a beginner with a limited probabilistic background and to expert in the field.

first-ever Handbook of Beta Distribution and Its Applications
clearly enumerates the properties of beta distributions and related
mathematical notions. It summarizes modern applications in a
variety of fields, reviews up-and-coming progress from the front
lines of statistical research and practice, and demonstrates the
applicability of beta distributions in fields such as economics,
quality control, soil science, and biomedicine. The book discusses
the centrality of beta distributions in Bayesian inference, the
beta-binomial model and applications of the beta-binomial
distribution, and applications of Dirichlet integrals.
Almost all published results on multivariate t-distributions (spanning the last 50 years) are collected in this comprehensive reference. The book begins with theoretical probabilistic results and then presents statistical aspects. Generalizations and applications are dealt with in the final chapters, including material on estimation and regression models of special value for practitioners in statistics and economics. A comprehensive bibliography of over 350 references is included.
