    TOPICS IN CIRCULAR STATISTICS

    by S Rao Jammalamadaka (University of California, Santa Barbara, USA) & Ashis SenGupta (Indian Statistical Institute, India)

    This research monograph on circular data analysis covers some recent advances in the field, besides providing a brief introduction to, and a review of, existing methods and models. The primary focus is on recent research into topics such as change-point problems, predictive distributions, circular correlation and regression, etc. An important feature of this work is the S-plus subroutines provided for analyzing actual data sets. Coupled with the discussion of new theoretical research, the book should benefit both the researcher and the practitioner.
