Abstract

This book is designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to R programming for data analysis, manipulation and presentation. It covers fundamental data structures such as vectors, matrices, arrays and lists, along with techniques for exploratory data analysis, data transformation and manipulation. The book explains basic statistical concepts and demonstrates their implementation using R, including descriptive statistics, graphical representation of data, probability, popular probability distributions and hypothesis testing. It also explores linear and non-linear modeling, model selection and diagnostic tools in R. The book also covers flow control and conditional calculations by using ‘‘if’’ conditions and loops and discusses useful functions and resources for further learning. It provides an extensive list of functions grouped according to statistics classification, which can be helpful for both statisticians and R programmers. The use of different graphic devices, high-level and low-level graphical functions and adjustment of parameters are also explained. Throughout the book, R commands, functions and objects are printed in a different font for easy identification. Common errors, warnings and mistakes in R are also discussed and classified with explanations on how to prevent them.

Abstract

The purpose of this book is to thoroughly prepare diverse areas of researchers in quantification theory. As is well known, quantification theory has attracted the attention of a countless number of researchers, some mathematically oriented and others not, but all of them are experts in their own disciplines. Quantifying non-quantitative (qualitative) data requires a variety of mathematical and statistical strategies, some of which are quite complicated. Unlike many books on quantification theory, the current book places more emphasis on preliminary requisites of mathematical tools than on details of quantification theory. As such, the book is primarily intended for readers whose specialty is outside mathematical sciences. The book was designed to offer non-mathematicians a variety of mathematical tools used in quantification theory in simple terms. Once all the preliminaries are fully discussed, quantification theory is then introduced in the last section as a simple application of those mathematical procedures fully discussed so far. The book opens up further frontiers of quantification theory as simple applications of basic mathematics.

Abstract

This innovative textbook presents material for a course on industrial statistics that incorporates Python as a pedagogical and practical resource. Drawing on many years of teaching and conducting research in various applied and industrial settings, the authors have carefully tailored the text to provide an ideal balance of theory and practical applications. Numerous examples and case studies are incorporated throughout, and comprehensive Python applications are illustrated in detail. A custom Python package is available for download, allowing students to reproduce these examples and explore others. The first chapters of the text focus on the basic tools and principles of process control, methods of statistical process control (SPC), and multivariate SPC. Next, the authors explore the design and analysis of experiments, quality control and the Quality by Design approach, computer experiments, and cyber manufacturing and digital twins. The text then goes on to cover reliability analysis, accelerated life testing, and Bayesian reliability estimation and prediction. A final chapter considers sampling techniques and measures of inspection effectiveness. Each chapter includes exercises, data sets, and applications to supplement learning. Industrial Statistics: A Computer-Based Approach with Python is intended for a one- or two-semester advanced undergraduate or graduate course. In addition, it can be used in focused workshops combining theory, applications, and Python implementations. Researchers, practitioners, and data scientists will also find it to be a useful resource with the numerous applications and case studies that are included. A second, closely related textbook is titled Modern Statistics: A Computer-Based Approach with Python. It covers topics such as probability models and distribution functions, statistical inference and bootstrapping, time series analysis and predictions, and supervised and unsupervised learning. These texts can be used independently or for consecutive courses. The mistat Python package can be accessed at https://gedeck.github.io/mistat-code-solutions/IndustrialStatistics/. "This book is part of an impressive and extensive write up enterprise (roughly 1,000 pages!) which led to two books published by Birkhäuser. This book is on Industrial Statistics, an area in which the authors are recognized as major experts. The book combines classical methods (never to be forgotten!) and "hot topics" like cyber manufacturing, digital twins, A/B testing and Bayesian reliability. It is written in a very accessible style, focusing not only on HOW the methods are used, but also on WHY. In particular, the use of Python, throughout the book is highly appreciated. Python is probably the most important programming language used in modern analytics. The authors are warmly thanked for providing such a state-of-the-art book. It provides a comprehensive illustration of methods and examples based on the authors longstanding experience, and accessible code for learning and reusing in classrooms and on-site applications." Professor Fabrizio Ruggeri Research Director at the National Research Council, Italy President of the International Society for Business and Industrial Statistics (ISBIS) Editor-in-Chief of Applied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry (ASMBI).

Abstract

This book aims to predict and model the transport of bioaerosols, identify their transmission characteristics, and assess occupants’ infection risks. Although existing epidemiological books provide fundamental infection rate of existing diseases, the ability of predicting emerging disease transmission in the air and assessing occupants’ infection risks to the bioaerosols is significantly lacking. This book is considered as a professional book that provides in-depth discussion of the aforementioned issues and provides potential approaches to solve these issues would be highly demanded by readers in this emerging research field. This book offers essential and systematic analysis on the fate of bioaerosols from their release in the air to the final destination in human’s respiratory systems through direct 3D visualizations techniques. It also provides quantifiable method to assess each occupant’s infection risks to the infectious bioaerosols in indoor environments. The readers will gain essential fundamental characteristics of bioaerosols (active time, viability, etc.) and will gain the advanced skills on how to integrate these properties into numerical modeling and assess the occupants’ exposure risks. .
