Applied Stochastic Modeling (PDF)


Free Download Liliana Blanco-CastaƱeda, "Applied Stochastic Modeling "
English | ISBN: 3031312813 | 2023 | 158 pages | PDF | 2 MB
This book provides the essential theoretical tools for stochastic modeling. The authors address the most used models in applications such as Markov chains with discrete-time parameters, hidden Markov chains, Poisson processes, and birth and death processes. This book also presents specific examples with simulation methods that apply the topics to different areas of knowledge. These examples include practical applications, such as modeling the COVID-19 pandemic and animal movement modeling. This book is concise and rigorous, presenting the material in an easily accessible manner that allows readers to learn how to address and solve problems of a stochastic nature.

Applied Statistics and Econometrics


Free Download Applied Statistics and Econometrics: Basic Topics and Tools with Gretl and R
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031531418 | 256 Pages | PDF | 12 MB
Taking a concise, non-technical approach, the book covers topics including simple regression and hypothesis testing, multiple regression with control variables and isolating effects, instrumental variables, dummy variables, non-linear effects, probability models, heteroskedasticity, time series analysis, and other applied statistical tools such as t-tests and chi squared tests. The book uses small data sets to easily facilitate students’ transition from manual statistical calculations to using and understanding statistical software, including step-by-step examples of regression analysis, as well as additional chapters to aid with econometric notation and mathematical prerequisites, and accompanying online exercises and data sets. This book will be a valuable resource for upper undergraduate students taking courses in introductory econometrics and statistics, as well as students in business administration and other fields of study in social sciences utilising quantitative methods. Graduate students may also benefit from the book.

Applied Methods of Cost-benefit Analysis in Health Care


Free Download Applied Methods of Cost-benefit Analysis in Health Care By Emma McIntosh, Philip Clarke, Emma J. Frew, Jordan J. Louviere (eds.)
2010 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 0199237123 | PDF | 2 MB
This book provides the reader with a comprehensive set of instructions and examples of how to perform a cost-benefit analysis (CBA) of a health intervention. Developed out of a course run by Jordan Louviere at the University of Technology, Sydney, entitled An Introduction to Stated Preference Discrete Choice Modelling it has a particular focus on the use of stated preference survey methods to identify consumer preference data, as well as the use of recent developments in cost-effectiveness analysis within a CBA framework. In doing so, the most up to date methodologies for CBA are compiled in a comprehensive manner with the aim of advancing the methodology of CBA in healthcare. ABOUT THE SERIES Series editors Alastair Gray and Andrew Briggs Economic evaluation of health intervention is a growing specialist field, and this series of practical handbooks tackles, in depth, topics superficially addressed in more general economics books. Each volume includes illustrative material, case histories and worked examples to encourage the reader to apply the methods discussed, with supporting material provided online. The series is aimed at health economists in academia, the pharmaceutical industry and the health sector, those on advanced health economics courses, and health researchers in associated fields.
