John Wiley & Sons Inc Limit Theorems in Change-Point Analysis
Change-point problems arise in a variety of experimental andmathematical sciences, as well as in engineering and healthsciences. This rigorously researched text provides a comprehensivereview of recent probabilistic methods for detecting various typesof possible changes in the distribution of chronologically orderedobservations. Further developing the already well-establishedtheory of weighted approximations and weak convergence, the authorsprovide a thorough survey of parametric and non-parametric methods,regression and time series models together with sequential methods.All but the most basic models are carefully developed with detailedproofs, and illustrated by using a number of data sets. Contains athorough survey of: * The Likelihood Approach * Non-Parametric Methods * Linear Models * Dependent Observations This book is undoubtedly of interest to all probabilists andstatisticians, experimental and health scientists, engineers, andessential for those working on quality control and surveillanceproblems.

Springer-Verlag New York Inc. Inference for Functional Data with Applications
This book presents recently developed statistical methods and theory required for the application of the tools of functional data analysis to problems arising in geosciences, finance, economics and biology. It is concerned with inference based on second order statistics, especially those related to the functional principal component analysis. While it covers inference for independent and identically distributed functional data, its distinguishing feature is an in depth coverage of dependent functional data structures, including functional time series and spatially indexed functions. Specific inferential problems studied include two sample inference, change point analysis, tests for dependence in data and model residuals and functional prediction. All procedures are described algorithmically, illustrated on simulated and real data sets, and supported by a complete asymptotic theory. The book can be read at two levels. Readers interested primarily in methodology will find detailed descriptions of the methods and examples of their application. Researchers interested also in mathematical foundations will find carefully developed theory. The organization of the chapters makes it easy for the reader to choose an appropriate focus. The book introduces the requisite, and frequently used, Hilbert space formalism in a systematic manner. This will be useful to graduate or advanced undergraduate students seeking a self-contained introduction to the subject. Advanced researchers will find novel asymptotic arguments.
