Synopsis

The CRC Handbook of Tables for the Use of Order Statistics in Estimation revises and significantly expands upon the well-known Order Statistics and Their Use in Testing and Estimation (Volume 2), published in 1970. It brings together tables relating to order statistics from many important distributions and provides maximum likelihood estimations of their parameters based on complete as well as Type-II censored samples. This practical reference describes in detail the method of computation used to construct the tables and illustrates their usefulness with practical examples. The CRC Handbook of Tables for the Use of Order Statistics in Estimation is easy to use and provides information on order statistics estimation at your fingertips.

About this title

Review

"deserves a place in the central reference section of any university mathematics library." - The Mathematical Gazette, March 1997

From the Back Cover

New material includes tables of variances and covariances of normal, exponential, Weibull and Gamma order statistics to complement the tables of expected values given in the 1970 volume, and tables of expected values, variances and covariances of order statistics of samples from eleven other populations, together with discussions of the methods of computation of the tables and their applications.
