Abstract | Christensen (statistics, U. of New Mexico) et al. present Bayesian statistical tools students, scientists, and statisticians can use to address scientific questions. Emphasizing the use of WinBUGS and...R to analyze real data, they cover Bayesian ideas, calculations, and inference, including modeling one and two sample data from traditional sampling models; actual simulation methods such as the theoretical basis for Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation and related application issues; different types of regression; general linear models to handle correlated data; time to event data; survival data; binary diagnostic testing; and nonparametric inference.
