This text provides the reader with a single book where they can find
accounts of a number of up-to-date issues in nonparametric inference.
The book is aimed at Masters or PhD level students in statistics,
computer science, and engineering. It is also suitable for researchers
who want to get up to speed quickly on modern nonparametric methods. It
covers a wide range of topics including the bootstrap, the nonparametric
delta method, nonparametric regression, density estimation, orthogonal
function methods, minimax estimation, nonparametric confidence sets, and
wavelets. The book's dual approach includes a mixture of methodology and
theory.
