The Workshop on Higher-Order Asymptotics and Post-Selection Inference (WHOA-PSI) will be held on the campus of Washington University in St. Louis from September 30-October 2, 2016. (See http://www.math.wustl.edu/~kuffner/WHOA-PSI.html.) Post-selection inference is relevant to virtually all areas of statistical application. Higher-order asymptotics provides the tools and insights needed to refine basic large-sample results for post-selection inference procedures, and make them more accurate in the practically realistic setting of small to moderate sample sizes. WHOA-PSI seeks to merge these fields, foster collaboration and discussion, and push forward the post-selection inference research frontier in the direction of higher-order accuracy for inference procedures. NSF funding will provide travel support for junior researchers to attend this conference.Washington University will host a workshop on higher order asymptotics and post-selection inference September 30 ? October 2, 206. Speakers include Brad Efron, Jianqing Fan, and Rob Tibshirani. This workshop attempts to address the needs of applied statisticians utilizing model selection procedures who also need extremely accurate inference procedures. The workshop will begin with tutorials on the main topics. This award provides funding for junior researchers to attend the conference.

从2016年9月30日至10月2日至10月2日，将在圣路易斯华盛顿大学的华盛顿大学校园举行有关高阶渐近药和隔离推理（WHOA-PSI）的研讨会。高阶渐近学提供了精炼基本的大样本结果所需的工具和见解，以进行选择后推理程序，并使它们在实际到中等样本量的实际环境中更加准确。 WHOA-PSI试图合并这些领域，促进协作和讨论，并推动推理后推理研究前沿，以提高推理程序的高阶准确性。 NSF的资金将为初级研究人员参加这次会议提供旅行支持。华什顿大学将在9月30日举办一个关于高级渐近技术和选择后推论的研讨会？ 206年10月2日。演讲者包括Brad Efron，Jianqing粉丝和Rob Tibshirani。该研讨会试图解决应用模型选择程序的应用统计学家的需求，这些程序也需要非常准确的推理程序。研讨会将从主要主题的教程开始。该奖项为初级研究人员参加会议提供了资金。
