SRC Summer 2004 Conference

ROBERT B. LUND的提案# 0413740 - abstract这项资助为参加在弗吉尼亚州布莱克斯堡举行的2004年夏季统计学研究会议（SRC）的初级研究人员和研究生提供旅费支持。该会议由南方地区统计委员会和美国统计协会共同主办，将于2004年6月6日至9日举行。邀请的主题包括贝叶斯方法、统计金融、马尔可夫链、实验设计、广义线性模型、功能数据分析、应用和案例研究以及统计教育。参与者将接触到统计方面的前沿研究以及统计教育和培训方面的未来问题。会议的主要影响将是传播研究资料和教学技术。对于许多初级参与者来说，这次会议提供了第一次接触新的研究课题的机会。因此，年轻的统计学家可以在相对较短的时间框架和小型会议环境中对该学科内的当前活动有一个广泛的了解。2004年的SRC强调了许多普通统计学家应该感兴趣的一系列广泛的主题。因此，预计在会议上将设想许多合作。2004年的委员会预计约有100名参加者。这一小规模活动有望在为期三天的活动中加强互动。

ROBERT B. LUND's PROPOSAL # 0413740 - ABSTRACTThis grant provides travel support for junior researchers and graduate students to attend the 2004 Summer Research Conference (SRC) in Statistics at Blacksburg, Virginia. The conference is sponsored jointly by the Southern Regional Council on Statistics and the American Statistical Association and will be held June 6 through June 9, 2004. Invited session topics include Bayesian methods, statistical finance, Markov chains, design of experiments, generalized linear models, functional data analysis, application and case studies, and statistical education. Participants are exposed to cutting-edge research in statistics as well as future issues in statistical education and training.The primary impact of the conference will be the dissemination of research information and teaching techniques. For many junior participants, this conference provides a first exposure to new research topics. Young statisticians are thus afforded a broad view of current activity within the discipline in a relatively short time frame and small conference setting. The SRC in 2004 emphasizes a broad set of topics that should be of interest to many general statisticians. Hence, numerous collaborations are expected to be conceived at the conference. The 2004 SRC is expected to have approximately 100 participants. This small scale is expected to enhance interaction during the three-day event.
