Introduction to Probability with R

Based on a popular course taught by the late Gian-Carlo Rota of MIT with many new topics covered as well Introduction to Probability with R presents R programs and animations to provide an intuitive yet rigorous understanding of how to model natural phenomena from a probabilistic point of view. Although the R programs are small in length they are just as sophisticated and powerful as longer programs in other languages. This brevity makes it easy for students to become proficient in R. This calculus-based introduction organizes the material around key themes. One of the most important themes centers on viewing probability as a way to look at the world helping students think and reason probabilistically.

Introduction to Combinatorics

What Is Combinatorics Anyway?Broadly speaking combinatorics is the branch of mathematics dealingwith different ways of selecting objects from a set or arranging objects. Ittries to answer two major kinds of questions namely counting questions: how many ways can a selection or arrangement be chosen with a particular set of properties; and structural questions: does there exist a selection or arrangement of objects with a particular set of properties?The authors have presented a text for students at all levels of preparation. For some this will be the first course where the students see several real proofs. Others will have a good background in linear algebra will have completed the calculus stream and will have started abstract algebra. The text starts by briefly discussing several examples of typical combinatorial problemsto give the reader a better idea of what the subject covers. The nextchapters explore enumerative ideas and also probability. It then moves on toenumerative functions and the relations between them and generating functions and recurrences. Important families of functions or numbers and then theorems are presented. Brief introductions to computer algebra and group theory come next. Structures of particular interest in combinatorics: posets graphs codes Latin squares and experimental designs follow. Theauthors conclude with further discussion of the interaction between linear algebraand combinatorics. FeaturesTwo new chapters on probability and posets.

Introduction to Spatial Econometrics

Although interest in spatial regression models has surged in recent years a comprehensive up-to-date text on these approaches does not exist. Filling this void Introduction to Spatial Econometrics presents a variety of regression methods used to analyze spatial data samples that violate the traditional assumption of independence between observations. It explores a wide range of alternative topics including maximum likelihood and Bayesian estimation various types of spatial regression specifications and applied modeling situations involving different circumstances. Leaders in this field the authors clarify the often-mystifying phenomenon of simultaneous spatial dependence. By presenting new methods they help with the interpretation of spatial regression models especially ones that include spatial lags of the dependent variable. The authors also examine the relationship between spatiotemporal processes and long-run equilibrium states that are characterized by simultaneous spatial dependence. MATLAB® toolboxes useful for spatial econometric estimation are available on the authors’ websites. This work covers spatial econometric modeling as well as numerous applied illustrations of the methods. It encompasses many recent advances in spatial econometric models—including some previously unpublished results.
