Reliability and survival analysis are important applications of stochastic mathematics (probability, statistics and stochastic processes) that are usually covered separately in spite of the similarity of the involved mathematical theory. This title aims to redress this situation: it includes 21 chapters divided into four parts: Survival analysis, Reliability, Quality of life, and Related topics. Many of these chapters were presented at the European Seminar on Mathematical Methods for Survival Analysis, Reliability and Quality of Life in 2006.
Catherine Huber is an Emeritus professor at Universite de Paris Rene Descartes. Her research activity concerns nonparametric and semi-parametric theory of statistics and their applications in biology and medicine. She has several publications in particular in the field of survival analysis. She is the co-author and co-editor of several books in the above fields. Nikolaos Limnios is a professor at the University of Technology of Compiegne. His research and teaching activities concern stochastic processes, statistical inference and their applications in particular in reliability and survival analysis. He is the co-author and co-editor of several books in the above fields. Mounir Mesbah is a professor at the Universite Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris 6. His research and teaching activities concern statistics and its applications in health science and medicine (biostatistics). He is the co-author of several articles and co-editor of several books in the above fields. Mikhail Nikulin is a professor at the Universite Victor Segalen, and a member of the Institute of Mathematics at Bordeaux. His research and teaching activities concern mathematical statistics and its applications in reliability and survival analysis. He is the co-author and co-editor of several books in the above fields.
