The theory of functional relationships concerns itself with inference from models with a more complex error structure than those existing in regression models. We are familiar with the bivariate linear relationship having measurement errors in both variables and the fact that the standard regression estimator of the slope underestimates the true slope. One complication with inference about parameters in functional relationships, is that many of the standard properties of likelihood theory do not apply, at least not in the form in which they apply to e.g. regression models. This is probably one of the reasons why these models are not adequately discussed in most general books on statistics, despite their wide applicability. In this monograph we will explore the properties of likelihood methods in the context of functional relationship models. Full and conditional likelihood methods are both considered. Possible modifications to these methods are considered when necessary. Apart from exloring the theory itself, emphasis shall be placed upon the derivation of useful estimators and their second moment properties. No attempt is made to be mathematically rigid. Proofs are usually outlined with extensive use of the Landau 0(.) and 0(.) notations. It is hoped that this shall provide more insight than the inevitably lengthy proofs meeting strict standards of mathematical rigour.

Tuberculosis is one of the great scourges of mankind and until recently a major cause of death in Europe and America. In developing countries it still kills millions despite chemotherapy. Although Koch discovered the tubercle bacillus more than a century ago, the epidemiology of the disease is still poorly understood. Its greatest enigma is why tuberculous infections occasionally cause disease but mostly remain asymptomatic. Co-infection with HIV is the only known cause of progression from infection to disease, but most tuberculosis victims are HIV negative. In Courtesans and Consumption evidence is presented that there must be another virus that causes progression to disease; a virus that like HIV can be transmitted sexually and via blood contacts. Nico Nagelkerke (1951) is a widely published biostatistician and infectious disease epidemiologist. He has worked in the fields of HIV, tuberculosis, and other infectious diseases in several countries including Kenya and his native... tijdelijk bij bestelling van euro 20,00 of meer gratis verzending.
