From the reviews:
„The Art of Semiparametrics is a collection of 10 edited chapters with 33 figures and 11 tables. … This special collection of selected articles nicely blends the theoretical results with applied statistics and empirical studies … . Almost all of the chapters are clear and well written … . I find this diverse collection an interesting one. Researchers and practitioners interested in the latest research in semiparametric statistics may find this volume to be an appealing collection of papers to add to their library.“ (Technometrics, Vol. 49 (1), February, 2007)
This selection of articles emerged from different works presented „The Art of Semiparametrics“ conference in 2003 in Berlin. It offers a collection of individual works that together show the large spectrum of semiparametric statistics. The book combines theoretical contributions with more applied and empirical studies. Although each article represents an original contribution to its own field, all are written in a self-contained way that may be read by non-experts.
