Klappentext zu „Scan Statistics “
In many statistical applications the scientists have to analyze the occurrence of observed clusters of events in time or space. The scientists are especially interested to determine whether an observed cluster of events has occurred by chance if it is assumed that the events are distributed independently and uniformly over time or space. Applications of scan statistics have been recorded in many areas of science and technology including: geology, geography, medicine, minefield detection, molecular biology, photography, quality control and reliability theory and radio-optics.

From the reviews: SHORT BOOK REVIEWS
"This is an excellent book for a graduate class or self study. The writing is extremely clear, the development is sound, and the production is of the highest quality. Of the roughly 600 references given, the authors have contributed about seven per cent, a good sign!"
"The book titled 'Scan Statistics' written by Glaz et al. has several statistical methodologies that are useful in bioinformatics data analysis ... . is suitable for Ph.D. level course in mathematical statistics. ... The bibliography ... includes more than 600 references, both current and past. ... I enjoyed reading ... learned a lot during the process, and in fact have raised several interesting research questions in my own mind. I strongly recommend ... to statisticians, computing scientists, and genetic engineers." (Ramalingam Shanmugam, Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, Vol. 74 (9), September, 2004)
"The book by Glaz et al. covers scan statistics and related topics. ... This book provides broad and up-to-date coverage on both approximate and exact results of scan statistics. ... I enjoyed reading and learning ... . I recommend ... highly for statisticians and computer scientists who are interested in mastering bioinformatics and related concepts." (Ramalingam Shanmugam, Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, Vol. 75 (1), January, 2005)
"Scan statistics have been introduced in order to identify clusters of events in time or space. ... the present book is a valuable introduction to scan statistics. It is well written ... . Readers interested in the applications of scan statistics will eminently benefit ... recommended to those interested in the mathematical background and the derivation of the formulas. Additionally, more than thirty pages of reference provide an excellent source for further reading and research." (Erhard Cramer, Metrika, July, 2003)
