Beschreibung

Provides a one-stop resource for engineers learning biostatistics using MATLAB® and WinBUGS Through its scope and depth of coverage, this book addresses the needs of the vibrant and rapidly growing bio-oriented engineering fields while implementing software packages that are familiar to engineers. The book is heavily oriented to computation and hands-on approaches so readers understand each step of the programming. Another dimension of this book is in parallel coverage of both Bayesian and frequentist approaches to statistical inference. It avoids taking sides on the classical vs. Bayesian paradigms, and many examples in this book are solved using both methods. The results are then compared and commented upon. Readers have the choice of MATLAB® for classical data analysis and WinBUGS/OpenBUGS for Bayesian data analysis. Every chapter starts with a box highlighting what is covered in that chapter and ends with exercises, a list of software scripts, datasets, and references. Engineering Biostatistics: An Introduction using MATLAB® and WinBUGS also includes: * parallel coverage of classical and Bayesian approaches, where appropriate * substantial coverage of Bayesian approaches to statistical inference * material that has been classroom-tested in an introductory statistics course in bioengineering over several years * exercises at the end of each chapter and an accompanying website with full solutions and hints to some exercises, as well as additional materials and examples Engineering Biostatistics: An Introduction using MATLAB® and WinBUGS can serve as a textbook for introductory-to-intermediate applied statistics courses, as well as a useful reference for engineers interested in biostatistical approaches.

Preface

Let's say you commit to 2 hours per day and you're able to write 3 pages per hour. To write an average length book of 300 pages will take 50 days. (300 pages per book/6 pages per day = 50 days).

A posting on Life Learning Today: How to Write a Book in 60 Days or Less.

By not following the recommendations from the above quote the writing of this book took much longer. The book is a result of many semesters of teaching various statistical courses to engineering students at Duke University and the Georgia Institute of Technology. Through its scope and depth of coverage, the book addresses the needs of the vibrant and rapidly growing engineering fields while implementing software that engineers are familiar with.

This book is substantially revised version of the text originally published by Springer in 2011 (ISBN 978-1-4614-0394-4). In addition to providing many new examples and exercises, a number of new sections is added. The original edition served as a primary textbook for the course Introduction to Bioengineering Statistics, at The Wallace H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering at Georgia Tech for 6 consecutive semesters. I noticed that it was used not only as a textbook but students found it useful as a repository of techniques for data analysis in other courses, class projects, senior design projects, and day-to-day laboratory data analysis. So by its scope this book is both: a textbook for introductory-to-intermediate applied biostatistics courses and a reference book with a coverage of a number of rather specialized techniques.

This book is heavily oriented to computation and hands-on approaches. The approach enforced avoids the use of mainstream statistical packages in which the procedures are often black-boxed. Rather, the students are expected to code the procedures on their own. The results may not be as flashy as they would be if the specialized packages were used, but the student will go through the process and understand each step of the program.

The computational support for this text is the MATLAB© programming environment since this software is predominant in the engineering communities.

Another dimension of this book is in the substantial coverage of Bayesian approaches to statistical inference. I avoided taking sides on the traditional (classical, frequentist) vs. Bayesian approach; it was my goal to expose students to both approaches. It is undeniable that classical statistics is overwhelmingly used in conducting and reporting inference among practitioners, and that Bayesian statistics is gaining in popularity, acceptance, and usage (FDA, Guidance for the Use of Bayesian Statistics in Medical Device Clinical Trials, 5 February 2010). Many examples in this book are solved using both the traditional and Bayesian methods, and the results are compared and commented upon.

This diversification is made possible by advances in Bayesian computation and the availability of the free software WinBUGS/OpenBUGS that provides painless computational support for Bayesian solutions. WinBUGS and MATLAB communicate well due to the interface software MATBUGS, written by Kevin P. Murphy and coauthors. The book also relies on stat toolbox within MATLAB.

The World Wide Web (WWW) facilitates the book. All custom-made MATLAB and WinBUGS programs (compatible with MATLAB R2017a and WinBUGS 1.4.3 or OpenBUGS 3.2.3) as well as data sets used in this book are available on the Web:

With the size of this book in mind the solutions and hints to some exercises can be found on the book's Web site. The computer scripts and examples are an integral part of the book, and all MATLAB codes and outputs are shown in blue typewriter font while all WinBUGS programs are given in red-brown typewriter font. The comments in MATLAB and WinBUGS codes are presented in green typewriter font.

The three icons , , and are used to point to data sets, MATLAB codes, and WinBUGS codes, respectively.

The difficulty of the material covered necessarily varies. More difficult sections that may be omitted in the basic coverage are denoted by a star, *. However, it is my experience that advanced undergraduate bioengineering students affiliated with school research labs need and use the “starred” material, such as functional ANOVA, variance stabilizing transforms, and nested experimental designs, to name just a few. Tricky or difficult places are marked with Donald Knut's “bend” .

Each chapter starts with a box titled WHAT IS COVERED IN THIS CHAPTER and ends with chapter exercises, a box called MATLAB AND WINBUGS FILES AND DATA SETS USED IN THIS CHAPTER, and chapter references.

The examples are numbered and the end of each example is marked with .

I am aware that this work could be improved with respect to both exposition and coverage. Thus, I would welcome any criticism and pointers from readers as to how this book could be improved.

Acknowledgments

I am indebted to many students and colleagues who commented on various drafts of the book. In particular I am grateful to colleagues from the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University and their undergraduate and graduate advisees/researchers who contributed many examples and data sets from their research labs.

Colleagues Tom Bylander of the University of Texas at San Antonio, John H. McDonald of the University of Delaware, and Roger W. Johnson of the South Dakota School of Mines & Technology kindly gave permission to use their data and examples. Special thanks go to Dr. Gary M. Raymond from University of Washington who provided useful feedback on several occasions. Several MATLAB codes used in this book come from the MATLAB Central File Exchange forum. In particular, I am grateful to Antonio Truillo-Ortiz and his team (Universidad Autonoma de Baja California) and to Giuseppe Cardillo (MeriGen Research) for their excellent contributions.

The book benefited from the input of many diligent students when it was used either as a supplemental reading or later as a draft textbook for a semester-long course at Georgia Tech: BMED2400 Introduction to Bioengineering Statistics. A complete list of students who provided useful feedback would be quite long, but the most diligent ones were Erin Hamilton, Kiersten Petersen, David Dreyfus, Jessica Kanter, Radu Reit, Amoreth Gozo, Nader Aboujamous, and Allison Chan. Special thanks go to Brett Jordan, who, as multiple-time Teaching Assistant for Bioengineering Statistics course, pointed out numerous places for text improvement.

Wiley's team kindly helped along the way. I am grateful to Jon Gurstelle, Allison McGinniss, Kathleen Pagliaro, and Melissa Yanuzzi for their encouragement and support. Finally, it hardly needs stating that the book would have been considerably less fun to write without the unconditional support of my family.
