Riassunto

Enrique Castillo is a leading figure in several mathematical and engineering fields. Organized to honor Castillo’s significant contributions, this volume is an outgrowth of the "International Conference on Mathematical and Statistical Modeling," and covers recent advances in the field. Applications to safety, reliability and life-testing, financial modeling, quality control, general inference, as well as neural networks and computational techniques are presented.

Recensione

From the reviews:

“This book is a Festschrift in honor of Professor Enrique Castillo. ... The book’s coverage is quite broad, as are Professor Castillo’s interests. The book should be a good addition to any library.” (David E. Booth, Technometrics, Vol. 51 (3), August, 2009)
