Editorial Reviews
Review
‘This is a well-written up-to-date graduate text on probabilty and random processes. It is unique in combining statistical analysis with the probabilistic material. As noted by the authors, the material, as presented, can be used in a variety of current application areas, ranging from communications to bioinformatics. I particularly liked the historical introduction, which should make the field exciting to the student, as well as the introductory chapter on probability, which clearly describes for the student the distinction between the relative frequency and axiomatic approaches to probability. I recommend it unhesitatingly. It deserves to become a leading text in the field.’ Professor Emeritus Mischa Schwartz, Columbia University
‘Hisashi Kobayashi, Brian L. Mark, and William Turin are highly experienced university teachers and scientists. Based on this background their book covers not only fundamentals but also a large range of applications. Some of them are treated in a textbook for the first time. … Without any doubt the book will be extremely valuable to graduate students and to scientists in universities and industry as well. Congratulations to the authors!’ Prof. Dr.-Ing. Eberhard Hänsler, Technische Universität Darmstadt
‘An up-to-date and comprehensive book with all the fundamentals in Probability, Random Processes, Stochastic Analysis, and their interplays and applications, which lays a solid foundation for the students in related areas. It is also an ideal textbook with five relatively independent but logically interconnected parts and the corresponding solution manuals and lecture slides. Furthermore, to my best knowledge, the similar editing in Part IV and Part V can’t be found elsewhere.’ Zhisheng Niu, Tsinghua University
