About this Item

Hardcover. The first MATLAB-based numerical methods textbook for bioengineers that uniquely integrates modelling concepts with statistical analysis, while maintaining a focus on enabling the user to report the error or uncertainty in their result. Between traditional numerical method topics of linear modelling concepts, nonlinear root finding, and numerical integration, chapters on hypothesis testing, data regression and probability are interweaved. A unique feature of the book is the inclusion of examples from clinical trials and bioinformatics, which are not found in other numerical methods textbooks for engineers. With a wealth of biomedical engineering examples, case studies on topical biomedical research, and the inclusion of end of chapter problems, this is a perfect core text for a one-semester undergraduate course. The first MATLAB-based numerical methods textbook specifically for bioengineers, including topics on hypothesis testing, plus numerous examples drawn exclusively from biomedical engineering applications. This is an ideal core text for one-semester undergraduate courses, and is also a valuable reference for anyone interested in the quantitative aspects of biology research.
