Reviews
An indispensable tool for scholars and research workers in mathematics and the mathematical sciences. (Mathematical Reviews, 2009) Despite its lean size, the book is able to cover many of the techniques and theories in parameter estimation that are core to applied sciences, and so this is certainly a valuable reference for researchers and graduate students alike. The book's exposition is lucid, making it an accessible reading for someone with a reasonable background in elementary statistics. Thus I think anyone in applied sciences and engineering dealing with the implementation of expectation models and aiming to estimate model parameters will find this book helpful. This is a great addition to resources in learning or reviewing statistical tools that emphasize taking advantage of valuable information from data and improving the precision of estimation. (Technometrics, November 2008) I highly recommend this book to practitioners who want to systematically learn and use, new, better techniques for parameter estimation. (Computing Reviews, September 10, 2008) ...appropriate for students in advanced applied statistics courses...even more useful as a supplemental resource... (CHOICE, January 2008)

Author Information
Adriaan van den Bos, PhD, is Professor Emeritus of the Department of Applied Physics of Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands. He carries out research in the field of statistical signal processing, parameter estimation, statistics, and application of parameter estimation to problems in applied physics, to optics and electron-optics in particular. He authored or coauthored some fifty journal papers, and his paper ""Alternative Interpretation of Maximum Entropy Spectral Analysis,"" published in IEEE Transactions on Information Theory in 1971, became an official Citation Classic. In addition to journal papers, he has contributed to a number of books. In 2000, Dr. van den Bos was elected to the grade of Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers for his fundamental work in modeling and identification and its application in instrumentation and signal processing.
