This book discusses interesting topics on Statistical and Mathematical Sciences and their Applications authored by renowned statisticians and mathematicians. Forecasting of crop production using econometric methods small area estimation techniques, fractional factorial plans for multi level experiments, balanced sampling plans, estimation procedures for reliability function, generalized Horvitz-Thompson estimator, Searle’s type logarithmic estimators, adaptive cluster sampling, geo-statistical techniques for health data, techniques of survival analysis, multivariate techniques for analysis of water quality parameters, Bayesian estimation techniques for lifetime distributions, reliability and life testing procedures and historical development of Bayesian econometrics have been discussed in an implicit manner. An emphasis has been given to application part of the theoretical concepts and ideas developed in the book. The book is very useful for the academicians, researchers and practitioners working in the field of Statistical and Mathematical sciences.
