Fall Meeting (This meeting is being held in conjunction with CU-Denver's Statistical Discussion Group) Speaker: Tom Boardman Topic: The Impact of Deming on Statisticians Discussion: Open Forum on Statistical Questions 4:00 - 5:30 P.M. Room 626 Tom Boardman of Colorado State University is a recent winner of the W. Edwards Deming Medal (see page 2). He will present some short comments on Deming’s impact on statisticians. In addition to Tom’s comments, we will have an open discussion with questions from the audience. The questions can cover any aspects of statistics and need not be related to the speaker’s comments. A goal of the local chapter for this year is to put more emphasis on the process of members helping members. The "open forum" aspect of the fall meeting is an implementation of this goal. So come and bring some nagging question you have on statistics. The answers will come from other attendees (we are not expecting the speaker to answer all questions). This meeting will be very informal. If you can’t come precisely at 4:00 P.M. , come a little later. We also encourage submitting questions in advance. This can be done by sending the question to any of the local chapter’s officers. Their e-mail addresses can be found on the Officers webpage. This meeting is being held in conjunction with CU-Denver's Statistical Discussion Group, which normally meets on the last Friday of the month at 4pm. People who are interested in discussing statistical problems from their jobs or their research are invited to participate, either formally or on a drop-in basis. Please contact Craig Williamson (cbwill3@advtech.uswest.com) or Karen Kafadar (kk@math.cudenver.edu) for further information. . |
