Description
Emphasizing the coherence of the broad area of applicable mathematics and the context it provides for the disciplines of statistics and operation research, this volume reflects the wide range of Peter Whittle's professional interests and his search for underlying unity. It includes papers on quantum probability, polymers, communication theory, epidemics, queues, large deviations, nonlinear systems, neural networks, spatial statistics, sequential analysis, optimization, Gittins indices and Markov decision processes. Fascinating linkages are made between these normally disparate subject areas. - from Amzon
