U.S.-Australia Joint Workshop: Nonparametric Statistical Methods/Canberra, Australia/June 1996

9513563 SPEED该奖项支持10位美国数学家参加将于1996年6月30日至7月4日在堪培拉的澳大利亚国立大学举办的题为《非参数统计方法：未来之路》的研讨会。美国组织者是加州大学伯克利分校统计系的特伦斯·斯皮德教授。澳大利亚的组织者是来自澳大利亚国立大学数学及其应用中心数学科学学院的彼得·霍尔教授。讲习班将回顾非参数统计领域的成就并讨论今后的研究，这是近年来在现代统计实践中发挥关键作用的一系列适应性、经验性和非参数技术。讲习班将审议统计科学的这一方面应取得进展的影响、前景和方向，以协助回答正在处理的日益复杂的科学问题。除了汇集两国的顶尖统计学家外，还将有来自加拿大、俄罗斯、瑞士和英国的一些选定的与会者。澳大利亚对此次研讨会的支持是由澳大利亚工业、科学和技术部(DIST)根据美澳合作科学计划提供的。

9513563 Speed This award supports the participation of ten American mathematicians at a workshop entitles "Nonparametric Statistical Methods: The Road Ahead" to be held at the Australian National University in Canberra, ACT, June 30 through July 4, 1996. The American organizer is Prof. Terence Speed from the Statistics Department of the University of California, Berkeley. The Australian organizer is Prof. Peter Hall from the School of Mathematical Sciences, Center for Mathematics and its Applications, at the Australian National University. The workshop will review achievements and discuss future research in the area of statistical nonparametrics, that body of adaptive, empirical and nonparametric techniques which has in recent years come to play a key role in modern statistical practice. The workshop will consider the implications, prospects and directions in which this aspect of statistical science should progress in order to assist in answering the increasingly complex scientific questions being addressed. In addition to bringing together top statisticians from both countries, a selected few participants will come from Canada, Russia, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Australian support for this workshop is provided by the Australian Department of Industry, Science and Technology (DIST) under the U.S.-Australia Cooperative Science Program.
