A Conference in Honor of Wayne A. Fuller

会议的主要目的是鼓励对新兴统计主题的学术讨论，以纪念Wayne Fuller四十多年来对统计和应用领域的贡献。为此，我们为会议设定了几个目标：在时间序列分析、测量误差模型和调查抽样方面提高统计知识。为了实现这一目标，我们邀请了一批杰出的统计学家，他们将在三届会议上介绍他们的工作。强调应用的重要性和统计发展对其他研究领域的影响。为此，我们邀请了一组研究人员，他们将讨论富勒的工作在各个领域的影响，包括饮食评估、小区域估计、计量经济学和经济学。提供一个友好和开放的环境，让年轻的统计学家可以展示他们的工作，并与资深统计学家互动。我们计划通过邀请处于职业生涯早期阶段的研究人员在其中一个邀请会议或专门为年轻研究人员准备的特别海报区域进行演讲来实现这一目标。聚集来自世界各地的统计学家，参加为期两天的统计学庆典，特别是富勒。活跃的思想和知识交流，对这些重要领域未来研究方向的定义，以及促进不同职业阶段和不同地理位置的研究人员之间的交流与合作，是我们希望从会议中产生的持久成果。

The main objective of the conference is to encourage intellectual discourse on emerging statistical topicsthat honor Wayne Fuller's forty plus years of contributions to statistics and fields of application. To doso, we have several goals for the conference:1. To advance statistical knowledge in the areas of time series analysis, measurement error models,and survey sampling. To achieve this goal, we have invited a distinguished slate of statisticians whowill present their work in three sessions.2. To highlight the importance of applications and the impact that statistical developments have in otherfields of inquiry. For this purpose, we have invited a set of researchers who will discuss theinfluence of Fuller's work in various areas, including dietary assessment, small area estimation, econometrics and economics.3. To provide a friendly and open environment in which young statisticians can present their work andinteract with senior statisticians. We plan to achieve this goal by inviting researchers in the earlystages of their careers to present a talk in one of the invited sessions or in the special poster areathat will be dedicated to young investigators.4. To gather statisticians from all over the world for a two-day celebration of statistics in general and ofFuller in particular. A lively exchange of ideas and knowledge, a definition of future directions forresearch in these important areas, and a fostering of communication and collaboration amongresearchers at different stages of their careers and from different geographic locations are lastingresults from the conference that we hope to produce.
