Extremes in Random Fields: A Theory and Its Applications

Sinopsis

Presents a useful new technique for yzing the extreme–value behaviour of random fields
Modern science typically involves the ysis of increasingly complex data. The extreme values that emerge in the statistical ysis of complex data are often of particular interest. This book focuses on the ytical approximations of the statistical significance of extreme values . Several relatively complex applications of the technique to problems that emerge in practical situations are presented.  All the examples are difficult to yze using classical methods, and as a result, the author presents a novel technique, designed to be more accessible to the user.
Extreme value ysis is widely applied in areas such as operational research, bioinformatics, computer science, finance and many other disciplines. This book will be useful for scientists, engineers and advanced graduate students who need to develop their own statistical tools for the ysis of their data. Whilst this book may not provide the reader with the specific answer it will inspire them to rethink their problem in the context of random fields, apply the method, and produce a solution.
