Chapter 2 deals with Bayesian estimation of parameters of well-known distributions, viz., Normal and associated distributions, Multinomial, Binomial, Poisson, Exponential, Weibull and Rayleigh families. Chapter 3 considers predictive distributions and predictive intervals. Chapter 4 covers Bayesian interval estimation. Chapter 5 discusses Bayesian approximations of moments and their application to multiparameter distributions. Chapter 6 treats Bayesian regression analysis and covers linear regression, joint credible region for the regression parameters and bivariate normal distribution when all parameters are unknown. Chapter 7 considers the specialized topic of mixture distributions and Chapter 8 introduces Bayesian Break-Even Analysis. It is assumed that students have calculus background and have completed a course in mathematical statistics including standard distribution theory and introduction to the general theory of estimation.
