Reihe: Emerging Topics in Statistics and Biostatistics

This book provides an overview and compilation of contemporary topics and innovative approaches in biostatistical modeling through their applications to evidence-based public health research and decision-making. This book covers topics in 3 parts as: 1) Biostatistical Modeling, 2) Imaging Data Analysis, and 3) Public Health Applications.

Topics should appeal to both expert statisticians, as well as health researchers interested in biostatistical methodological applications in evidence-based health research. The book is a resourceful manual and can be used as an authoritative reference. The features covered in this book will appeal to researchers where public health research is being rigorously conducted.

Carlos Coelho is a Professor of Statistics at the Mathematics Department of NOVA School of Science and Technology of NOVA University of Lisbon. His main area of research is Multivariate Analysis, namely the development of likelihood ratio tests for elaborate covariance structures and for MANOVA models, also with elaborate covariance structures, together with the study of the exact distribution and the development of near-exact distributions for the associated test statistics. Related with this area, other areas of interest are Mathematical Statistics and Distribution Theory, as well as Estimation, Univariate and Multivariate Linear, Generalized Linear and Mixed Models. More recently, he also got interested in tests for high-dimensionality and the application of Multivariate Analysis techniques to Statistical Disclosure Control problems. He is Associate Editor of the Springer Book series “Emerging Topics in Statistics and Biostatistics” and a member of the International Council of the “Business World” Library of the Tsenov Academy of Economics (Svishtov, Bulgaria).
