The mean residual life has been used for many years under the name of life expectancy, so it is a natural concept for summarizing survival or reliability data. It is also more interpretable than the popular hazard function, especially for communications between patients and physicians regarding the efficacy of a new drug in the medical field. This book reviews existing statistical methods to infer the residual life distribution. The review and comparison includes existing inference methods for mean and median, or quantile, residual life analysis through medical data examples. The concept of the residual life is also extended to competing risks analysis. The targeted audience includes biostatisticians, graduate students, and PhD (bio)statisticians. Knowledge in survival analysis at an introductory graduate level is advisable prior to reading this book.Statistics for Biology and Health,1431-8776StatisticsBiometryEpidemiologyStatistics for Life Sciences, Medicine, Health Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17030Biostatisticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L15020Epidemiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H63000Statistics.Biometry.Epidemiology.Statistics for Life Sciences, Medicine, Health Sciences.Biostatistics.Epidemiology.519.2/2519.22519.5Jeong Jong-Hyeonauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut721702BOOK9910300159803321Statistical inference on residual life1410716UNINA05741nam 22006015 450 991048333360332120251113181954.09783319058252331905825810.1007/978-3-319-05825-2(CKB)3710000000375664(EBL)1998605(SSID)ssj0001465467(PQKBManifestationID)11935257(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001465467(PQKBWorkID)11470725(PQKB)10815276(DE-He213)978-3-319-05825-2(MiAaPQ)EBC1998605(PPN)18488750X(EXLCZ)99371000000037566420150312d2015 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrE-Learning Systems, Environments and Approaches Theory and Implementation /edited by Pedro Isaías, J.

The following sub-topics are included: Exploratory Learning Technologies (Part I), e-Learning social web design (Part II), Learner communities through e-Learning implementations (Part III), Collaborative and student-centered e-Learning design (Part IV). E-Learning has been, since its initial stages, a synonym for flexibility. While this dynamic nature has mainly been associated with time and space it is safe to argue that currently it embraces other aspects such as the learners’ profile, the scope of subjects that can be taught electronically and the technology it employs. New technologies also widen the range of activities and skills developed in e-Learning. Electronic learning environments have evolved past the exclusive delivery of knowledge. Technology has endowed e-Learning with the possibility of remotely fomenting problem solving skills, critical thinking and team work, by investing in information exchange, collaboration, personalisation and community building.Educational technologyLearning, Psychology ofDigital Education and Educational TechnologyInstructional PsychologyEducational technology.Learning, Psychology of.Digital Education and Educational Technology.Instructional Psychology.371.33Isaias Pedroedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtSpector J.
