Bayesian Nonparametric Data Analysis

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2015-06-17

  • Publisher: Springer

This book reviews nonparametric Bayesian methods and models that have proven useful in the context of data analysis. Rather than providing an encyclopedic review of probability models, the book’s structure follows a data analysis perspective. As such, the chapters are organized by traditional data analysis problems. In selecting specific nonparametric models, simpler and more traditional models are favored over specialized ones. The discussed methods are illustrated with a wealth of examples, including applications ranging from stylized examples to case studies from recent literature. The book also includes an extensive discussion of computational methods and details on their implementation. R code for many examples is included in online software pages.

Müller's Lab

Many structures in the human body are named after Johannes Muller, one of the most respected anatomists and physiologists of the 19th century. Muller taught many of the leading scientists of his age, many of whom would go on to make trail-blazing discoveries of their own. Among them were Theodor Schwann, who demonstrated that all animals are made of cells; Hermann Helmholtz, who measured the velocity of nerve impulses; and Rudolf Virchow, who convinced doctors to think of disease at the cellular level. This book tells Muller's story by interweaving it with those of seven of his most famous students. Muller suffered from depression and insomnia at the same time as he was doing his most import...

Stakeholder Support in Family Businesses

Many family businesses fail during succession and sometimes they do because the successor is not granted the legitimacy by primary stakeholders of the company. But what does it take to be a legitimate successor in the eyes of these audiences? Are there different dimensions of legitimacy? And if so, do different stakeholder groups value the different dimensions of legitimacy differently? This book expands our knowledge of the origin and impact of a successor’s legitimacy in family owned businesses after succession. By analyzing a successor’s legitimacy on five dimensions, this work detects whether primary stakeholder groups’ decisions, to continuously provide their resources to family b...
