Mathematical Sciences Research Equipment - 1989

本项目为美国国家科学基金会数学科学部数学科学项目的科学计算研究设备项目。该计划支持购买专用于数学科学研究的专用计算设备。这些设备是几个研究项目所需要的，很难证明单独用于一个项目是合理的。国家科学基金会的支持与制造商的折扣和捐款以及提交提案的机构的大量费用分摊相结合。这个项目是学术、企业和政府合作支持数学科学基础研究的一个例子。该设备将用于支持威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校统计学系的五个研究项目：由道格拉斯·贝茨（Douglas Bates）指导的可能性和响应面交互显示；基于Probal Chaudhuri的非参数分位数回归的最优平滑及其敏感性分析《树结构推理与自举置信区间》，陆维银导演；多时间序列的降秩模型分析，Gregory Reinsel导演以及Brian Yandell执导的《空间过程图形总结》。

This is a grant under the Scientific Computing Research Equipment for the Mathematical Sciences program of the Division of Mathematical Sciences of the National Science Foundation. This program supports the purchase of special purpose computing equipment dedicated to the conduct of research in the mathematical sciences. This equipment is required for 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 institutions submitting the proposal. This program is an example of academic, corporate, and government cooperation in the support of basic research in the mathematical sciences. This equipment will be used to support five research projects in the Department of Statistics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison: Interactive Display of Likelihood and Response Surfaces, directed by Douglas Bates; Optimal Smoothing in Nonparametric Quantile Regression and Related Sensitivity Analysis, directed by Probal Chaudhuri; Tree-Structured Inference and Bootstrapped Confidence Intervals, directed by Wei-Yin Loh; Analysis of Reduced Rank Models for Multiple Time-Series, directed by Gregory Reinsel; and Graphical Summaries of Spatial Processes, directed by Brian Yandell.
