International Conference on the Foundation of Statistical Inference: Applications in the Medical and Social Sciences and in Industry and the Interface with Computer Science

摘要：DMS-0086688 PI：Fienberg，Stephen EA将于2000年12月17日至21日在以色列耶路撒冷附近的Kiryat Anavim会议中心举行特别国际会议：统计推理基础：在医学和社会科学和工业中的应用及其与计算机科学的接口。这次会议聚集了统计学及其应用方面的主要专家，讨论了推理基础中的问题以及它们与统计学在医学科学、社会科学和工业中的多种用途的相关性。1985年12月举行了一次类似的会议。这次会议的一个特别焦点将是统计学和计算机科学之间的接口。资金将为大约20名美国主要是新的研究人员和代表不足的团体的成员以及受邀的演讲者和参与者提供旅行支持。CEISE董事会的KCS计划和SBE董事会的MMS计划与MPS的统计计划一起提供共同资金。

Abstract:DMS-0086688 PI: Fienberg, Stephen EA special international conference, "Foundation of Statistical Inference: Applications in the Medical and Social Sciences and in Industry and the Interface with Computer Science", will be held in Israel at the conference center at Kiryat Anavim near Jerusalem, on December 17-21, 2000. This conference brings together leading experts in statistics and its applications to discuss both the issues in the foundations of inference and their relevance to the many and varied uses of statistics in the medical sciences, the social sciences, and in industry. A similar conference was held in December 1985. A special focus at this conference will be on the interface between statistics and computer science. Funding will provide travel support for approximately 20 U.S. primarily new researchers and members of underrepresented groups, and invited speakers and participants. The KCS Program in the CISE directorate and the MMS Program in SBE directorate is providing co-funding along with the Statistics Program in MPS.
