Mathematical Sciences Research Equipment

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This is a grant under the Scientific Computing Research Equipment for the Mathematical Sciences program of the Division of Mathematical Sciences. It is for the purchase of special purpose equipment dedicated to the support of research in the mathematical sciences. In general, this equipment is required by several research projects, and would be difficult to justify for one project alone. Support from the National Science Foundation is coupled with discounts and contributions from manufacturers, and with substantial cost-sharing from the institution submitting the proposal. This is an instance of university, industrial, and government cooperation in the support of basic research in the mathematical sciences. The equipment in this project will be used to support research projects in the department of statistics at Carnegie- Mellon University, including Images Generated by Random Affine Maps; Statistical Modelling of Random Sets; Graphical Analysis of Parallel Algorithms; and Bayesian Methods for Image Reconstruction.
