Signal Detection for Medical Scientists: Likelihood Ratio Test-based Methodology (Chapman & Hall/CRC Biostatistics Series) (Original PDF)
The book is written as a reference book for professionals in pharmaceutical industry, manufactures of medical devices, and regulatory agencies. The book deals with the signal detection in drug/device evaluation, which is important in the post-market evaluation of medical products, and in the pre-market signal detection during clinical trials for monitoring procedures.
It should also appeal to academic researchers, and faculty members in mathematics, statistics, biostatistics, data science, pharmacology, engineering, epidemiology, and public health. Therefore, this book is well suited for both research and teaching.
Key Features:
-
- Includes a balanced discussion of art of data structure, issues in signal detection, statistical methods and analytics, and implementation of the methods.
-
- Provides a comprehensive summary of the LRT methods for signal detection including the basic theory and extensions for varying datasets that may be large post-market data or pre-market clinical trial data.
- Contains details of scientific background, statistical methods, and associated algorithms that a reader can quickly master the materials and apply methods in the book on one’s own problems
