Nonparametric data analysis in statistical science

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Changes in technology have enabled new types of data to be collected, often more complex and in much larger quantities than ever before, and altered fundamentally the types of questions that need to be asked of those data. The research program will develop new statistical methods for analysing new types of data, for example functional data and data with many dimensions, and will also introduce greatly improved solutions to problems that involve more conventional data types. These techniques will have critical applications to diverse fields. The program will contribute substantially to capacity building in a strategically important area, statistical science, of great value to Australia but where chronic skills shortages exist.
