商品描述

This focuses on the developing field of building probability models with the power of symbolic algebra systems. The book combines the uses of symbolic algebra with probabilistic/stochastic application and highlights the applications in a variety of contexts. The research explored in each chapter is unified by the use of A Probability Programming Language (APPL) to achieve the modeling objectives. APPL, as a research tool, enables a probabilist or statistician the ability to explore new ideas, methods, and models. Furthermore, as an open-source language, it sets the foundation for future algorithms to augment the original code.

Computational Probability Applications is comprised of fifteen chapters, each presenting a specific application of computational probability using the APPL modeling and computer language. The chapter topics include using inverse gamma as a survival distribution, linear approximations of probability density functions, and also moment-ratio diagrams for univariate distributions. These works highlight interesting examples, often done by undergraduate students and graduate students that can serve as templates for future work. In addition, this book should appeal to researchers and practitioners in a range of fields including probability, statistics, engineering, finance, neuroscience, and economics.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書專注於利用符號代數系統的力量來建立機率模型的發展領域。該書結合了符號代數的應用與機率/隨機應用，並強調在各種情境中的應用。每一章所探討的研究都以 A Probability Programming Language (APPL) 的使用為統一，來實現建模目標。APPL 作為一種研究工具，使機率學家或統計學家能夠探索新的想法、方法和模型。此外，作為一種開源語言，它為未來的算法增強原始代碼奠定了基礎。

《計算機率應用》由十五章組成，每章呈現使用 APPL 建模和計算機語言的特定計算機率應用。章節主題包括使用反伽瑪分佈作為生存分佈、機率密度函數的線性近似，以及單變量分佈的矩比圖。這些作品突顯了有趣的例子，通常由本科生和研究生完成，並可作為未來工作的範本。此外，本書應該會吸引機率、統計、工程、金融、神經科學和經濟學等多個領域的研究人員和實務工作者。
