Parametric Statistical Models and Likelihood /

The book gives an account of the mathematical-statistical theory of the main classes of parametric statistical models, i.e. transformatioon models and exponential models, and of likelihood based inference. The emphasis is on recent developments - various new results are presented - and the mathemati...
