Paperback. Condition: New. 1st. Surrogates: a graduate textbook, or professional handbook, on topics at the interface between machine learning, spatial statistics, computer simulation, meta-modeling (i.e., emulation), design of experiments, and optimization. Experimentation through simulation, "human out-of-the-loop" statistical support (focusing on the science), management of dynamic processes, online and real-time analysis, automation, and practical application are at the forefront. Topics include:Gaussian process (GP) regression for flexible nonparametric and nonlinear modeling.Applications to uncertainty quantification, sensitivity analysis, calibration of computer models to field data, sequential design/active learning and (blackbox/Bayesian) optimization under uncertainty. Advanced topics include treed partitioning, local GP approximation, modeling of simulation experiments (e.g., agent-based models) with coupled nonlinear mean and variance (heteroskedastic) models. Treatment appreciates historical response surface methodology (RSM) and canonical examples, but emphasizes contemporary methods and implementation in R at modern scale.Rmarkdown facilitates a fully reproducible tour, complete with motivation from, application to, and illustration with, compelling real-data examples.Presentation targets numerically competent practitioners in engineering, physical, and biological sciences. Writing is statistical in form, but the subjects are not about statistics. Rather, they're about prediction and synthesis under uncertainty; about visualization and information, design and decision making, computing and clean code. …

Paperback. Condition: New. Monty the Null Hippopotamus: Exploring Statistical Foundations Through Simulation offers a revolutionary approach to introductory statistics for students who grew up in the computing age. Breaking away from the traditional formula-memorization approach that makes Stat 101 a dreaded requirement, the book emphasizes computational thinking and conceptual understanding through hands-on coding examples. The aim is to make statistics accessible and engaging by leveraging modern computing power rather than the tedium of punching numbers into calculators or flipping through pages of tables.The book covers foundational statistical concepts through advanced topics including nonparametric methods and regression analysis, all presented through a computational lens that prioritizes process over precision. Everything is illustrated with coded examples, ensuring readers develop genuine intuition for how statistical methods actually work in practice.Features. Emphasizes simulation and Monte Carlo methods over formula memorization. Illustrated with fully reproducible R and supplementary Python. Comprehensive coverage, from basic inference to nonparametrics and regression. Graduated homework exercises combining theory with real-world data analysis. More than thirty data sets supporting examples and exercises. Favors understanding over pedantry, with extensive web links and contextual referencesThis book is designed for undergraduate students comfortable with probability, calculus, and basic programming. It serves as an ideal text for introductory statistics courses, and is equally valuable for graduate students from non-statistical backgrounds seeking a modern foundation in statistical thinking. The text is perfect for students ready to engage deeply with statistical concepts through hands-on exploration.…
