Features: This book includes topics such as elementary probability calculations, random variables and their distributions, digital characteristics, multivariate random vectors, limit theorems, basic concepts of statistics, point estimation and interval estimation, hypothesis testing, regression and correlation analysis, and analysis of variance. Some materials that are important in theory and application but generally considered to be beyond the scope of this course have been selected for the convenience of instructors and scholars.
This book emphasizes the explanation of fundamental concepts while striving for rigorous exposition within the set mathematical level.
Over a hundred exercises have been carefully selected, and hints and solutions are provided at the end of the book.
This book is intended as a textbook for probability and statistics courses in non-mathematics departments of science and engineering disciplines in higher education institutions. It can also be used for self-study by readers with adequate mathematical preparation (elementary calculus and some knowledge of matrices).
