Historical remarks
The scientific study of probability is a modern development. Gambling shows that there has been an interest in quantifying the ideas of probability for millennia, but exact mathematical descriptions of use in those problems only arose much later.

Uncertainty in Industrial Practice: A Guide to Quantitative Uncertainty Management
Etienne de Rocquigny (Editor), Dr. Nicolas Devictor (Editor), Dr. Stefano Tarantola (Editor) Mon, 30 Jun 2008 04:00:00 -0000
There is a growing demand from institutional bodies for the justification of industrial methodologies and practices (e.g. safety criteria, environmental protection and control, maintenance and design optimization). Previous books in this area have either been too theoretical, or too specific in their scope. Uncertainty in Industrial Practice aims to provide a practical reference on uncertainty treatment for all types of industry, Read More...

Charles E. McCulloch, Shayle R. Searle, John M. Neuhaus Mon, 30 Jun 2008 04:00:00 -0000
An accessible and self-contained introduction to statistical models-now in a modernized new edition Generalized, Linear, and Mixed Models, Second Edition provides an up-to-date treatment of the essential techniques for developing and applying a wide variety of statistical models. The book presents thorough and unified coverage of the theory behind generalized, linear, and mixed models and highlights their similarities and differences in various Read More...
Bayesian Approach to Inverse Problems
Jérôme Idier (Editor) Mon, 30 Jun 2008 04:00:00 -0000
Many scientific, medical or engineering problems raise the issue of recovering some physical quantities from indirect measurements; for instance, detecting or quantifying flaws or cracks within a material from acoustic or electromagnetic measurements at its surface is an essential problem of non-destructive evaluation. The concept of inverse problems precisely originates from the idea of inverting the laws of physics to recover a quantity of interest Read More...
Time Series Analysis: Forecasting and Control, 4th Edition
George E. P. Box, Gwilym M. Jenkins, Gregory C. Reinsel Mon, 30 Jun 2008 04:00:00 -0000
This is a revision of a classic, seminal, and authoritative book that has been the model for most books on the topic written since 1970. It focuses on practical techniques throughout, rather than a rigorous mathematical treatment of the subject. It explores the building of stochastic (statistical) models for time series and their use in important areas of application forecasting, model specification, Read More...
