Book Price $0 : During The Last Decades. The Evolution Of Theoretical Statistics Has Been Marked By A Considerable Expansion Of The Number Of Mathematically And Computationaly Trac­ Table Models. Faced With This Inflation. Applied Statisticians Feel More And More Un­ Comfortable: They Are Often Hesitant About Their Traditional (typically Parametric) Assumptions. Such As Normal And I. I. D . • ARMA Forms For Time-series. Etc . • But Are At The Same Time Afraid Of Venturing Into The Jungle Of Less Familiar Models. The Prob­ Lem Of The Justification For Taking Up One Model Rather Than Another One Is Thus A Crucial One. And Can Take Different Forms. (a) ~~~£ifi~~~iQ~ : Do Observations Suggest The Use Of A Different Model From The One Initially Proposed (e. G. One Which Takes Account Of Outliers). Or Do They Render Plau­ Sible A Choice From Among Different Proposed Models (e. G. Fixing Or Not The Value Of A Certai N Parameter) ? (b) TlQ~~L~~l!rQ1!iIMHQ~ : How Is It Possible To Compute A "distance" Between A Given Model And A Less (or More) Sophisticated One. And What Is The Technical Meaning Of Such A "distance" ? (c) BQe~~~~~~ : To What Extent Do The Qualities Of A Procedure. Well Adapted To A "small" Model. Deteriorate When This Model Is Replaced By A More General One? This Question Can Be Considered Not Only. As Usual. In A Parametric Framework (contamina­ Tion) Or In The Extension From ParametriC To Non Parametric Models But Also.
