N.G. de Bruijn carried out fundamental work on integers having only small prime factors and the Dickman-de Bruijn function that arises on computing the density of those integers. In this he used his earlier work on linear functionals and…
In 1963-71, a group of people, myself included, formulated and perfected a new approach to physics problems, which eventually came to be known under the names of scaling, universality, and renormalization. This work formed the basis of a…
R. A. Fisher was one of the greatest scientists of the last century. He made many ground-breaking contributions, so many indeed that it seems almost impossible to list all of them. His revolutionary contributions to the design of…
We give some personal reflections on the person and scientist Lars Brink and on some of his scientific achievements. Our relations to Lars are briefly described in [1] and [2], while the sources relevant for this text are summarised in [3].
Thomas Milton Liggett was a world renowned UCLA probabilist, famous for his monograph Interacting Particle Systems. He passed away peacefully on May 12, 2020. This is a perspective article in memory of both Tom Liggett the person and Tom…
Selective inference aims at providing valid inference after a data-driven selection of models or hypotheses. It is essential to avoid overconfident results and replicability issues. While significant advances have been made in this area for…
Now a day's students have a large set of data having precious information hidden. Data mining technique can help to find this hidden information. In this paper, data mining techniques name Byes classification method is used on these data to…
Egbert Brieskorn died on July 11, 2013, a few days after his 77th birthday. He was an impressive personality who has left a lasting impression on all who knew him, whether inside or outside of mathematics. Brieskorn was a great…
Mathematical understanding is built in many ways. Among these, illustration has been a companion and tool for research for as long as research has taken place. We use the term illustration to encompass any way one might bring a mathematical…
This is a survey work on Lie algebras with ad-invariant metrics. We summarize main features, notions and constructions, in the aim of bringing into consideration the main research on the topic. We also give some list of examples in low…
This is an intrusion in the life and the mathematics of Norbert A'Campo, intended to be a tribute to him and an acknowledgement of his impact on those who know him and his work. The final version of this paper appears in the book ``Essays…
Recently, data mining studies are being successfully conducted to estimate several parameters in a variety of domains. Data mining techniques have attracted the attention of the information industry and society as a whole, due to a large…
This talk presents a short review of David Brink's most important achievements and of my own experience working with him.
This article is the rejoinder for the paper "Probabilistic Integration: A Role in Statistical Computation?" to appear in Statistical Science with discussion. We would first like to thank the reviewers and many of our colleagues who helped…
This article provides the role of big idea statisticians in future of Big Data Science. We describe the `United Statistical Algorithms' framework for comprehensive unification of traditional and novel statistical methods for modeling Small…
We are living in the big data era, as current technologies and networks allow for the easy and routine collection of data sets in different disciplines. Bayesian Statistics offers a flexible modeling approach which is attractive for…
Many problems in industry --- and in the social, natural, information, and medical sciences --- involve discrete data and benefit from approaches from subjects such as network science, information theory, optimization, probability, and…
The modern era is characterised as an era of information or Big Data. This has motivated a huge literature on new methods for extracting information and insights from these data. A natural question is how these approaches differ from those…
