Progressive Modelling Non-Nested Testing and Encompassing

This volume explains the encompassing principle: the history of its development and how it relates to a progressive research strategy of evaluating the relative merits of different models, providing alternative explanations for the same phenomena. It shows how it can be tested and presents both theoretical and applied applications. It covers recent results including comparison of non-linear, non-parametric models and simulation-based techniques.Mizon, Grayham E. is the author of 'Progressive Modelling Non-Nested Testing and Encompassing' with ISBN 9780199257324 and ISBN 0199257329.
