Empirical Process Techniques for Dependent Data - by Herold Dehling & Thomas Mikosch & Michael Sörensen (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Empirical process techniques for independent data have been used for many years in statistics and probability theory. This work gives an introduction to a new theory of empirical process techniques --- treating dependent data --- which has so far been scattered widely in the statistical and probabilistic literature, and surveys the most recent developments in various related fields. To date this book is the only comprehensive treatment of the topic in book literature. It is an ideal introductory text that will serve as a reference or resource for classroom use.

Review Quotes

"The book is an outgrowth of the workshop held in November 2000 at the University of Copenhagen. It opens by an extensive tutorial covering the topic from the early roots up to recent developments and is accompanied by a vast bibliography of newly 150 items...

The book is the first comprehensive treatment of this topic, perhaps because only the present-day computers are able to meet the enormous requirements for high speed and large memory necessary for the application of statistical techniques to dependent data. It will be suitable for classroom use as well as for specialists in probability and statistics and for practitioners in the above mentioned branches of dependent data applications." ---APPLICATIONS OF MATHEMATICS
