Written by one of the top most statisticians with experience in diverse fields of applications of statistics, the book deals with the philosophical and methodological aspects of information technology, collection and analysis of data to provide insight into a problem, whether it is scientific research, policy making by government or decision making in our daily lives.The author dispels the doubts that chance is an expression of our ignorance which makes accurate prediction impossible and illustrates how our thinking has changed with quantification of uncertainty by showing that chance is no longer the obstructor but a way of expressing our knowledge. Indeed, chance can create and help in the...
This book presents a theoretical treatment, as well as a summary ofpractical methods of computation, of the forces and moments that acton marine craft. Its aim is to provide the tools necessary for theprediction or simulation of craft motions in calm water and inwaves. In addition to developing the required equations, the authorgives relations that permit at least approximate evaluation of thecoefficients so that useful results can be obtained. The approachbegins with the equations of motion for rigid bodies, relative tofixed- and moving-coordinate systems; then, the hydrodynamic forcesare examined, starting with hydrostatics and progressing to the forceson a moving vehicle in calm water and (after a review of water-wavetheory) in waves. Several detailed examples are presented, includingcalculations of hydrostatics, horizontal- and vertical-planedirectional stability, and wave-induced motions. Also included areunique discussions on various effects, such as fin?hullinteractions, numerical stability of integrators, heavy torpedoes, andthe dynamics of high-speed craft. The book is intended to be anintroductory-level graduate text and a reference for the practicingprofessional.
This book includes speeches given during five seminar sessions held in honor of Prof. C. R. Rao, on his 100th year. This book also contains a few write-ups touching on the diverse aspects of this august personality. The chapters pay tribute to Prof. C. R. Rao, the Padma Vibhushan awardee, by discussing his life and contributions to the field of statistics. The book also includes a chapter by the Abel Prize winner Prof. S. R. Varadhan who happened to successfully complete his Ph.D. under the guidance of Prof. C. R. Rao. .
R is open source statistical computing software. Since the R core group was formed in 1997, R has been extended by a very large number of packages with extensive documentation along with examples freely available on the internet. It offers a large number of statistical and numerical methods and graphical tools and visualization of extraordinarily high quality. R was recently ranked in 14th place by the Transparent Language Popularity Index and 6th as a scripting language, after PHP, Python, and Perl. The book is designed so that it can be used right away by novices while appealing to experienced users as well. Each article begins with a data example that can be downloaded directly from the R...
Revised and updated with the latest results, this Third Edition explores the theory and applications of linear models. The authors present a unified theory of inference from linear models and its generalizations with minimal assumptions. They not only use least squares theory, but also alternative methods of estimation and testing based on convex loss functions and general estimating equations. Highlights of coverage include sensitivity analysis and model selection, an analysis of incomplete data, an analysis of categorical data based on a unified presentation of generalized linear models, and an extensive appendix on matrix theory.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Cryptology in India, INDOCRYPT 2019, held in Hyderabad, India, in December 2019. The 28 revised full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 110 submissions (of which 20 were either rejected without being reviewed or withdrawn before the deadline). The focus of the conference includes works on signatures and filter permutators; symmetric key ciphers and hash functions; blockchain, secure computation and blind coupon mechanism; oblivious transfer, obfuscation and privacy amplification; Boolean functions, elliptic curves and lattices; algorithms, attacks and distribution; and efficiency, side-channel resistance and PUFs.
