U.S.-Australia Joint Workshop: New Directions in Nonparametric Curve Estimation / Canberra, Australia / June 1994

这个奖将支持12名高级和初级研究人员参加定于1994年6月底在澳大利亚堪培拉举行的关于非参数曲线估计的讲习班。美国的组织者是斯坦福大学统计学系的伊恩·约翰斯通教授。澳大利亚的协办人是堪培拉澳大利亚国立大学的Peter Hall教授和Prakash Patil博士。该研讨会是在美国-澳大利亚合作科学计划下进行的，澳大利亚通过工业、技术和区域发展部（DITARD）提供支持。曲线估计是当代统计方法的重要组成部分。它在许多工业应用和计量经济学中起着重要作用。研讨会将讨论曲线估计的新方向，汇集该领域一些最活跃和最权威的工作者。讲习班的目的是提供一个论坛，讨论这一主题的新发展，以期确定未来研究的最适当的新方向和最有希望的数据分析新方法。除了澳大利亚和美国的参加者外，加拿大、瑞士和联合王国的统计学家也将参加这个讲习班，每个国家派一名统计学家。

9316006 Johnstone This award will support the participation of twelve senior and junior investigators to participate in a workshop on nonparametric curve estimation to be held in Canberra, Australia at the end of June 1994. The American organizer is Prof. Iain Johnstone of the Department of Statistics at Stanford University. The Australian Co-organizers are Prof. Peter Hall and Dr. Prakash Patil of the Australian National University in Canberra. This workshop is being conducted under the U.S.- Australia Cooperative Science Program and support in Australia is provided through the Department of Industry, Technology and Regional Development (DITARD). Curve estimation is a vital part of contemporary statistical methodology. It plays an important role in many industrial applications and in econometrics. The workshop will address new directions in curve estimation by bringing together some of the most active and authoritative workers in the field. The aim of the workshop is to provide a forum for discussing new developments in the subject with a view to determining the most appropriate new directions for future research and the most promising new methods of data analysis. In addition to the Australian and American participants, statisticians from Canada, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, one from each nation, will also be taking part in this workshop.
