Probability and Statistical Models: Foundations for Problems in Reliability and Financial Mathematics
With an emphasis on models and techniques, this textbook introduces many of the fundamental concepts of stochastic modeling that are now a vital component of almost every scientific investigation. These models form the basis of well-known parametric lifetime distributions such as exponential, Weibull, and gamma distributions, as well as change-point and mixture models. The authors also consider more general notions of non-parametric lifetime distribution classes.
Adequate texts that introduce the concepts of abstract algebra are plentiful. None, however, are more suited to those needing a mathematical background for careers in engineering, computer science, the physical sciences, industry, or finance than Algebra: A Computational Introduction. Along with a unique approach and presentation, the author demonstrates how software can be used as a problem-solving tool for algebra.
Here is a textbook of intuitive calculus. The material is presented in a concrete setting with many examples and problems chosen from the social, physical, behavioural and life sciences. Chapters include core material and more advanced optional sections. The book begins with a review of algebra and graphing.
