Statistics for Correlated Data: A Conference in Celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Department of Statistics at Iowa State University; Ames, Iowa; October 16-18, 1997

DMS 9700897相关数据统计：爱荷华州立大学统计系成立50周年庆祝会议1997年10月16日至18日，艾姆斯，爱荷华州立大学模式大楼50011摘要：爱荷华州立大学统计系在成立50周年之际，计划主办一次会议，这将对统计科学的进步和统计的未来基础设施做出贡献。会议的科学主题是“相关数据的统计”，涵盖了当前许多重要的理论和应用研究主题，并与该部门的优势和传统领域相对应。这次会议的计划是让不同的统计界尽可能地了解它，并鼓励和支持处于职业生涯早期的研究人员。相关数据出现在建模时间和空间过程、分析重复测量、复杂的抽样和实验方案以及广泛的应用问题中。在这个广泛的主题中，研究人员倾向于根据子主题或应用领域来定义不同的小组。这次会议试图聚集对相关数据统计的任何理论或应用分领域感兴趣的统计学家，并作为一个交流和交流知识的场所。主要主题涵盖的子领域包括时间序列、空间统计、抽样、纵向分析、多元分析、工程、生命和农业科学的应用。计划有10-15名来自爱荷华州外的特邀演讲者。大会还计划为年轻研究人员举办一次特别的特邀海报发布会。这一计划将被广泛宣布和宣传，以获得大量的申请者。至少有10名年轻研究人员将被选为特邀参与者，并将在海报环节中大获全胜。此外，将通过中西部统计系网络促进研究生和年轻教职员工的参与。

DMS 9700897 Statistics for Correlated Data: A Conference in Celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Department of Statistics at Iowa State University Yasuo Amemiya October 16-18, 1997 Scheman Building, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa 50011 Abstract: The Department of Statistics at Iowa State University, in conjunction with its 50th anniversary, plans to host a conference that will contribute to the advancement of statistical science and to the future infrastructure of statistics. The scientific theme of the conference is "Statistics for Correlated Data", which covers many of the currently important theoretical and applied research topics, and which corresponds to the areas of the department's strength and tradition. The plan for the conference is to make it as accessible as possible to the diverse statistics community, and to encourage and support researchers in early stages of their career. Correlated data arise in modeling temporal and spatial processes, in analyzing repeated measures, in complex sampling and experimental schemes, and in a wide range of applied problems. In this broad subject, researchers tend to form separate groups defined by sub-topics or the areas of application. This conference attempts to gather statisticians with interest in any of the theoretical or applied sub-areas of correlated data statistics, and to serve as a place for communicating and exchanging knowledge. Sub-areas covered by the main theme include time series, spatial statistics, sampling, longitudinal analysis, multivariate analysis, applications to engineering, life, and agricultural sciences. It is planned to have 10-15 invited speakers from outside Iowa State. The conference also plans to have a special invited poster session for young researchers. This program will be announced and advertised widely to obtain a large pool of applicants. At least ten young researchers will be selected as invited participants, and will be feat ured in the poster session. In addition, the participation of graduate students and young faculty members will be promoted through the network of the Midwest departments of statistics.
