商品描述

Developed from celebrated Harvard statistics lectures, Introduction to Probability provides essential language and tools for understanding statistics, randomness, and uncertainty. The book explores a wide variety of applications and examples, ranging from coincidences and paradoxes to Google PageRank and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Additional application areas explored include genetics, medicine, computer science, and information theory. 

The authors present the material in an accessible style and motivate concepts using real-world examples. Throughout, they use stories to uncover connections between the fundamental distributions in statistics and conditioning to reduce complicated problems to manageable pieces.

The book includes many intuitive explanations, diagrams, and practice problems. Each chapter ends with a section showing how to perform relevant simulations and calculations in R, a free statistical software environment.

The second edition adds many new examples, exercises, and explanations, to deepen understanding of the ideas, clarify subtle concepts, and respond to feedback from many students and readers. New supplementary online resources have been developed, including animations and interactive visualizations, and the book has been updated to dovetail with these resources. 

Supplementary material is available on Joseph Blitzstein's website www. stat110.net. The supplements include:
Solutions to selected exercises
Additional practice problems
Handouts including review material and sample exams Animations and interactive visualizations created in connection with the edX online version of Stat 110.
Links to lecture videos available on ITunes U and YouTube There is also a complete instructor's solutions manual available to instructors who require the book for a course.

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

從著名的哈佛統計學講座發展而來的《機率導論》提供了理解統計學、隨機性和不確定性的基本語言和工具。這本書探討了各種應用和範例,從巧合和悖論到 Google PageRank 和馬可夫鏈蒙地卡羅(Markov chain Monte Carlo, MCMC)。其他探討的應用領域包括遺傳學、醫學、計算機科學和信息理論。

作者以易於理解的風格呈現材料,並使用現實世界的例子來激發概念。在整本書中,他們利用故事揭示統計學中基本分佈之間的聯繫,並通過條件化將複雜問題簡化為可管理的部分。

本書包含許多直觀的解釋、圖表和練習題。每章結尾都有一個部分,展示如何在 R 這個免費的統計軟體環境中執行相關的模擬和計算。

第二版增加了許多新的範例、練習和解釋,以加深對概念的理解,澄清微妙的概念,並回應許多學生和讀者的反饋。新的補充在線資源已經開發,包括動畫和互動視覺化,並且本書已更新以與這些資源相結合。

補充材料可在 Joseph Blitzstein 的網站 www.stat110.net 獲得。補充內容包括:
選定練習題的解答
額外的練習題
包括複習材料和樣本考試的講義
與 edX 在線版本 Stat 110 相關的動畫和互動視覺化
可在 ITunes U 和 YouTube 上獲得的講座視頻鏈接
此外,還有完整的教師解答手冊,供需要本書作為課程教材的教師使用。
