Composed from techniques and best practices presented over many years of lectures and workshops, The Art of Regression Modeling in Road Safety illustrates that fruitful modeling cannot be done without substantive knowledge about the modeled phenomenon. Class-tested in courses and workshops across North America, the book is ideal for professionals, researchers, university professors, and graduate students with an interest in, or responsibilities related to, road safety. This book also: · Presents for the first time a powerful analytical tool for road safety researchers and practitioners · Includes problems and solutions in each chapter as well as data and spreadsheets for running models and PowerPoint presentation slides · Features pedagogy well-suited for graduate courses and workshops including problems, solutions, and PowerPoint presentations · Equips readers to perform all analyses on a spreadsheet without requiring mastery of complex and costly software · Emphasizes understanding without esoteric mathematics · Makes assumptions visible and explains their role and consequences.Transportation engineeringTraffic engineeringStatisticsQuality controlReliabilityIndustrial safetyTransportation Technology and Traffic Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23120Statistics for Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Chemistry and Earth Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17020Quality Control, Reliability, Safety and Riskhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T22032Transportation engineering.Traffic engineering.Statistics.Quality control.Reliability.Industrial safety.Transportation Technology and Traffic Engineering.Statistics for Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Chemistry and Earth Sciences.Quality Control, Reliability, Safety and Risk.519519.5620658.56Hauer Ezraauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut720968BOOK9910299844003321Art of Regression Modeling in Road Safety1413092UNINA
