The complexity of large-scale data sets (“Big Data”) has stimulated the development of advanced
computational methods for analysing them. There are two different kinds of methods to aid this. The
model-based method uses probability models and likelihood and Bayesian theory, while the model-free
method does not require a probability model, likelihood or Bayesian theory. These two approaches
are based on different philosophical principles of probability theory, espoused by the famous
statisticians Ronald Fisher and Jerzy Neyman.
Introduction to Statistical Modelling and Inference covers simple experimental and survey designs,
and probability models up to and including generalised linear (regression) models and some
extensions of these, including finite mixtures. A wide range of examples from different application
fields are also discussed and analysed. No special software is used, beyond that needed for maximum
likelihood analysis of generalised linear models. Students are expected to have a basic
mathematical background in algebra, coordinate geometry and calculus.
Features
• Probability models are developed from the shape of the sample empirical cumulative distribution
function (cdf) or a transformation of it.
• Bounds for the value of the population cumulative distribution function are obtained from the
Beta distribution at each point of the empirical cdf.
• Bayes’s theorem is developed from the properties of the screening test for a rare condition.
• The multinomial distribution provides an always-true model for any randomly sampled data.
• The model-free bootstrap method for finding the precision of a sample estimate has a model-based
parallel – the Bayesian bootstrap – based on the always-true multinomial distribution.
• The Bayesian posterior distributions of model parameters can be obtained from the maximum
likelihood analysis of the model.
This book is aimed at students in a wide range of disciplines including Data Science. The book is
based on the model-based theory, used widely by scientists in many fields, and compares it, in less
detail, with the model-free theory, popular in computer science, machine learning and official
survey analysis. The development of the model-based theory is accelerated by recent developments
in Bayesian analysis.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
