In recent years, the recognition of the fundamental role of probability theory and statistical methods in solving engineering problems and promoting research in the natural sciences has been constantly increasing. This book provides an introduction to probability and statistics for students in engineering schools and departments of the natural sciences.
It covers the basic laws of probability, characterizations of one-dimensional and multi-dimensional distributions, moments and generating functions, the main models of useful distributions in applications and statistical inference, graphics for exploratory data analysis, point estimation methods and confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, simple and multiple linear regression analysis, and elements of error theory and analysis of measurement systems.
The theory is presented with many explanations and without unnecessary mathematical details, so that the reader can focus on understanding the essence of the concepts and the logic that governs statistical techniques. In addition, emphasis is placed on presenting realistic applications, so that the student can gain more insight into the types of problems that engineers and scientists can address using probabilistic and statistical tools. Finally, examples of statistical analysis using the Minitab package are provided.
Improvements in the 2nd Edition
- 100 additional exercises have been added, most of which refer to practical problems in the fields of engineering and the natural sciences.
- More examples of regression analysis using Minitab are provided.
- Detailed answers are provided for 159 exercises with odd numbers.
