这是科学计算研究基金会的一笔拨款 该司数学科学方案的设备 数学科学。这是为了购买特殊的 专用于支持研究的设备 数学科学 一般来说，这种设备需要 几个研究项目，很难证明 一个项目单独。 国家科学基金会的支持 再加上制造商的折扣和贡献， 并由提交报告的机构分摊大量费用， 这个提议 这是一个大学、工业和 政府合作支持基础研究 数学科学 本项目的设备将用于项目 包括贝叶斯推理的快速通用方法;鲁棒 贝叶斯分析;多重要性函数;动态模型 和生存分析;和建立贝叶斯统计模型。

This is a grant under the Scientific Computing Research Equipment for the Mathematical Sciences program of the Division of Mathematical Sciences. It is for the purchase of special purpose equipment dedicated to the support of research in the mathematical sciences. In general, this equipment is required by several research projects, and would be difficult to justify for one project alone. Support from the National Science Foundation is coupled with discounts and contributions from manufacturers, and with substantial cost-sharing from the institution submitting the proposal. This is an instance of university, industrial, and government cooperation in the support of basic research in the mathematical sciences. The equipment in this project will be used for projects including Fast Generic Methods for Bayesian Inference; Robust Bayesian Analysis; Poly-t Importance Functions; Dynamic Models and Survival Analysis; and Building Bayesian Statistical Models.
