Bayesian Analysis in Statistics and Econometrics

Bayesian Analysis in Statistics and Econometrics edited by Prem K. Goel, N. Sreenivas Iyengar.

This volume is based on the invited and the contributed presentations given at the Indo-U.S. Workshop on Bayesian Analysis in Statistics and Econometrics (BASE), Dec. 19-23, 1988, held at the Hotel Taj Residency, Bangalore, India. The workshop was jointly sponsored by The Ohio State University, The...
