This one-of-a-kind volume explores the most recent advancements in biostatistics and its applications. Among the chapters included are both original contributions and reviews of the most recent advancements in the field. Written by researchers from the pharmaceutical industry, universities, and the research and development divisions of the government, this book offers a balanced representation of the research community. It provides advanced graduate students and new researchers with a complete scholarly assessment of several research frontiers in biostatistics and will help these readers make significant contributions to the development of the subject by exploring new approaches and making discoveries.
New Advances in Statistics and Data Science

This book is comprised of the presentations delivered at the 25th ICSA Applied Statistics Symposium held at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta, on June 12-15, 2016. This symposium attracted more than 700 statisticians and data scientists working in academia, government, and industry from all over the world. The theme of this conference was the “Challenge of Big Data and Applications of Statistics,” in recognition of the advent of big data era, and the symposium offered opportunities for learning, receiving inspirations from old research ideas and for developing new ones, and for promoting further research collaborations in the data sciences. The invited contributions addressed rich topics closely related to big data analysis in the data sciences, reflecting recent advances and major challenges in statistics, business statistics, and biostatistics. Subsequently, the six editors selected 19 high-quality presentations and invited the speakers to prepare full chapters for this book, which showcases new methods in statistics and data sciences, emerging theories, and case applications from statistics, data science and interdisciplinary fields. The topics covered in the book are timely and have great impact on data sciences, identifying important directions for future research, promoting advanced statistical methods in big data science, and facilitating future collaborations across disciplines and between theory and practice.
Recent Advances and Trends in Nonparametric Statistics

The advent of high-speed, affordable computers in the last two decades has given a new boost to the nonparametric way of thinking. Classical nonparametric procedures, such as function smoothing, suddenly lost their abstract flavour as they became practically implementable. In addition, many previously unthinkable possibilities became mainstream; prime examples include the bootstrap and resampling methods, wavelets and nonlinear smoothers, graphical methods, data mining, bioinformatics, as well as the more recent algorithmic approaches such as bagging and boosting. This volume is a collection of short articles - most of which having a review component - describing the state-of-the art of Nonparametric Statistics at the beginning of a new millennium. Key features: . algorithic approaches . wavelets and nonlinear smoothers . graphical methods and data mining . biostatistics and bioinformatics . bagging and boosting . support vector machines . resampling methods
