这本书的副标题是富兰克林格雷比尔的荣誉散文,由格雷比尔博士在科罗拉多州的同事贾亚·斯里瓦斯塔瓦编辑。由于获奖者是第一次知道我作为作者的一个非常广泛的知名书籍的数理统计,我预计,这本书将主要包含理论论文。没有章节,所以我不得不自己统计22篇论文;其中15篇纯粹是理论性的。作者包括一些著名的名字在统计,如博斯,布拉德利,和塞尔。其他7篇论文包括一个历史(卡尔·皮尔逊),一个评论(审计抽样),和5篇论文,可以被认为是“应用”下的一个松散的定义。其中三篇非理论论文是计算性的。有一篇关于行列表中的功效比较的论文,另一篇题为“自适应稳健估计的论证”,第三篇关于单向随机效应模型的容限。有两篇论文确实对应用给予了一定的关注,分别是“时间序列分析中新息表示的应用”和“平衡单因子随机模型中的预测区间”。第一个有一些数字的例子,包括一个数据。第二个实验既有模拟实验,也有简单的说明性单向实验。也许书评的职位影响了我的观点,但让同事们以我的荣誉发表论文,对我来说是最终的同行认可。希望这本书是平装本!这种北荷兰的产品,有着他们通常最好的装订和印刷,以及目前不利的弗罗林-美元汇率的障碍,对任何个人来说都是一个太高的价格。人们希望格雷比尔博士的崇拜者能鼓励他们的图书馆有一本供他们阅读。
This book is subtitled Essays in Honor of Franklin Graybill and is edited by Jaya Srivastava, a colleague of Dr. Graybill at Colorado State. Since the honoree was first known to me as the author of a very widely renowned book on mathematical statistics, I was anticipating that the book would contain mostly theoretical papers. There are no sections, so I had to make my own tally of the 22 papers; 15 of them are purely theoretical. The writers include a number of famous names in statistics, such as Boes, Bradley, and Searle. The other 7 papers include a history (Karl Pearson), a review (sampling in auditing), and 5 papers that could be considered as “applications” under a loose definition. Three of the nontheoretical papers are computational. There is a paper on power comparisons in row-column tables, another titled “An Argument for Adaptive Robust Estimation,” and a third on tolerance limits in one-way random-effects models. Two papers that do give some attention to applications are “Applications of Innovation Representation in Time Series Analysis” and “Prediction Intervals in Balanced One-Factor Random Models.” The first has some numerical examples, including one with data. The second has both simulations and a simple illustrative one-way experiment.Perhaps this book-review position colors my perspective, but having colleagues publish essays in my honor would be for me the ultimate peer acknowledgment. One hopes the book will be paperback! This North-Holland product, with their usual superlative binding and printing and its handicap of the unfavorable current florin-dollar exchange rate, carries a price too hefty for any individual. One hopes that Dr. Graybill’s admirers will encourage their libraries to have a copy for their perusal.
