Theory of Random Sets recalls and builds on the foundations laid by Matheron and others to present a state of the art treatment of the modern theory, including the vast advances in stochastic geometry, probability theory, set-valued analysis, and statistical inference of the 1990s. The book is entirely self-contained, systematic and exhaustive, with the full proofs that are necessary to gain insight. It shows the various interdisciplinary relationships of random set theory within other parts of mathematics, and at the same time, fixes terminology and notation that are often varying in the current literature to establish it as a natural part of modern probability theory, and to provide a platform for future development.weiterlesen
