Statistical Tolerance Regions
John Wiley & Sons Inc (Verlag)
978-0-470-38026-0 (ISBN)
The book begins with the key definitions, concepts, and technical results that are essential for deriving tolerance intervals and tolerance regions. Subsequent chapters provide in-depth coverage of key topics including:
Univariate normal distribution
Non-normal distributions
Univariate linear regression models
Nonparametric tolerance intervals
The one-way random model with balanced data
The multivariate normal distribution
The one-way random model with unbalanced data
The multivariate linear regression model
General mixed models
Bayesian tolerance intervals
A final chapter contains coverage of miscellaneous topics including tolerance limits for a ratio of normal random variables, sample size determination, reference limits and coverage intervals, tolerance intervals for binomial and Poisson distributions, and tolerance intervals based on censored samples. Theoretical explanations are accompanied by computational algorithms that can be easily replicated by readers, and each chapter contains exercise sets for reinforcement of the presented material. Detailed appendices provide additional data sets and extensive tables of univariate and multivariate tolerance factors.
Statistical Tolerance Regions is an ideal book for courses on tolerance intervals at the graduate level. It is also a valuable reference and resource for applied statisticians, researchers, and practitioners in industry and pharmaceutical companies.
K. Krishnamoorthy, PhD, is Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. He is Associate Editor of Communications in Statistics and has published numerous journal articles in his areas of research interest, which include tolerance regions, multivariate analysis, and statistical computing. Thomas Mathew, PhD, is Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. He currently focuses his research on tolerance regions, inference in linear mixed and random models, and bioequivalence testing. A Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics and the American Statistical Association, Dr. Mathew is the coauthor of Statistical Tests for Mixed Linear Models, also published by Wiley.
