(a) complete statistic: T (X) is complete w.r.t. a family P if ∀g : R → R measurable, E[g(T )] = 0 ∀P ∈ P ⇒ g = 0 a.s. w.r.t. P. (b) sufficient statistic:: We define a sub σ-field Σ ⊆ Bn to be sufficient for P (or equivalently, Θ) if ∀A ∈ Bn, ∃fA Σ-measurable s.t. ∀P ∈ P, fA(x) = EP [1A|Σ] a.s. wrt P (i.e. the conditional expectations given Σ is independent of the law of X, P ∈ P).We say T (X) ...

Age-standardized rates (ASRs; using 1985 Japanese standard population) for Breast cancer mortality for 1960–2000 are shown for Japan, the USA, the UK, France and Italy (Fig. 1). Over this period, ASRs of breast cancer among women from the USA, the UK, France and Italy decreased following the peak around 1990. ASRs for Japanese women were much lower than those observed among women in the USA, th...

Each year, the American Cancer Society estimates the numbers of new cancer cases and deaths that will occur in the United States in the current year and compiles the most recent data on cancer incidence, mortality, and survival. Incidence data were collected by the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program; the National Program of Cancer Registries; and the North American Association ...

Cancer statistics, 2000.

The Surveillance Research Program of the American Cancer Society's Department of Epidemiology and Surveillance Research reports its annual compilation of estimated cancer incidence, mortality, and survival data for the United States in the year 2000. After 70 years of increases, the recorded number of total cancer deaths among men in the US declined for the first time from 1996 to 1997. This de...
