Andreas Büchter und Hans-Wolfgang Henn: Elementare Stochastik - Eine Einführung in die Mathematik der Daten und des Zufalls

1. Zielsetzung An Einführungen in die Stochastik ist kein Mangel. Deshalb begründen die beiden Autoren im Vorwort und in einem einleitenden Kapitel ausführlich ihre Absichten und erläutern, wie sie diese realisieren wollen. Elementar soll das Werk sein, d.h. „mit den grundlegenden Ideen, Zusammenhängen und Ergebnissen der Statistik und der Wahrscheinlichkeitsrechnung vertraut machen“, ohne dass...

Invasive Computing in HPC with X10 pdfauthor=Hans-Joachim Bungartz, Christoph Riesinger, Martin Schreiber, Andreas Zwinkau pdfkeywords=X10, Invasic

High performance computing with thousands of cores relies on distributed memory due to memory consistency reasons. The resource management on such systems usually relies on static assignment of resources at the start of each application. Such a static scheduling is incapable of starting applications with required resources being used by others since a reduction of resources assigned to applicat...

Discussion Andreas

Gelman’s article is a thought-provoking mix of opinions and creative methodology. I agree with Gelman that the disjunction of models and exploratory data analysis (EDA) in mainstream statistics is unsound. The assumption that models belong exclusively to confirmatory data analysis (CDA) is easily shown to be wrong in practice. Many uses of models, in particular model selection, are exploratory,...

Assuming that there are correct basic norms, is there a way to explain their correctness? Paul does not think so, and he argues that a certain family of strategies for explaining the correctness of one particular class of basic epistemic norms does not work. The norms in question are those which concern the acceptance of ID-sentences, i.e. sentences which are, or seem to be, the implicit defini...
