Synopsis:

This new edition sees the inclusion of 70% new material, including eight new case studies, that brings this best selling title up to date with the many advances made in the field since its original publication. In the text all the methods described are either computational or of a statistical modelling nature; complex probabilistic models and mathematical tools are not used, so the book is accessible to a wide audience of both students and industry professionals.

A number of case studies are explored, taken from Giudici’s own applied work in industry, that demonstrate how the methods described can be applied to real problems. The book is supported by website featuring data sets, software and additional material.
