About the Book:

"Statistical Techniques for Transportation Engineering" by Kumar Molugaram is an invaluable resource for students pursuing transportation engineering at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. This book presents a wide range of statistical techniques, starting with basic concepts such as measures of central tendency and dispersion. It then delves into more advanced topics, including random variables, discrete and continuous distributions, binomial and Poisson distributions, normal distribution, mathematical expectation, moments, skewness, kurtosis, curve fitting, correlation, regression, hypothesis testing, and time series analysis. The book's systematic and logical approach, combined with numerous examples, solved problems, and exercises, makes it an ideal textbook for students seeking to master statistical techniques in transportation engineering.
