Childhood and graduate school at Ann Arbor Michigan prepared Bill for an interesting and rewarding career in physics. Along the way came Carol and many joint discoveries with our many colleagues to whom we both owe this good life. This…
In 1994, I came to Berkeley and was fortunate to stay there three years, first as a postdoctoral researcher and then as Neyman Visiting Assistant Professor. For me, this period was a unique opportunity to see other aspects and learn many…
Hypertension is a global health concern with an increasing prevalence, underscoring the need for effective monitoring and analysis of blood pressure (BP) dynamics. We analyzed a substantial BP dataset comprising 75,636,128 records from…
Computer science has grown rapidly since its inception in the 1950s and the pioneers in the field are celebrated annually by the A.M. Turing Award. In this paper, we attempt to shed light on the path to influential computer scientists by…
The following conversation is based in part on a transcript of a 2009 interview funded by Pfizer Global Research-Connecticut, the American Statistical Association and the Department of Statistics at the University of Connecticut-Storrs as…
This Special Issue of Biomolecules, commissioned in honor of Dr. Philip E. Bourne, focuses on a new field of biomolecular data science. In this brief retrospective, we consider the arc of Bourne's 40-year scientific and professional career,…
A brief description and results of A.M. Mathai's research programme on statistics and probability, initiated in the 1970s, and its relation to physics is given.
Donoho's JCGS (in press) paper is a spirited call to action for statisticians, who he points out are losing ground in the field of data science by refusing to accept that data science is its own domain. (Or, at least, a domain that is…
We establish nonuniform Berry-Esseen (B-E) bounds for Studentized U-statistics of the rate $1/\sqrt{n}$ under a third-moment assumption, which covers the t-statistic that corresponds to a kernel of degree $1$ as a special case. While an…
Eugenio Regazzini was born on August 12, 1946 in Cremona (Italy), and took his degree in 1969 at the University "L. Bocconi" of Milano. He has held positions at the universities of Torino, Bologna and Milano, and at the University "L.…
Since no effective therapies exist for Alzheimer's disease (AD), prevention has become more critical through lifestyle factor changes and interventions. Analyzing electronic health records (EHR) of patients with AD can help us better…
In this very personal workography, I relate my 40-year experiences as a researcher and educator in and around Artificial Intelligence (AI), more specifically Natural Language Processing. I describe how curiosity, and the circumstances of…
Identifying preclinical biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases remains a major challenge in aging research. In this study, we demonstrate that frequent "Don't know/can't remember" (DK) responses, often treated as missing data in…
We use the data of tenured and tenure-track faculty at ten public and private math departments of various tiered rankings in the United States, as a case study to demonstrate the statistical and mathematical relationships among several…
Yuan Shih Chow was born in Hubei province in China, on September 1, 1924. The eldest child of a local militia and political leader, he grew up in war and turmoil. His hometown was on the front line during most of the Japanese invasion and…
We present a detailed study of an adiabatic state preparation in an effective three-level quantum system. States can be prepared with high speed and fidelity by adding a counterdiabatic (CD) quantum control protocol. As a second step, we…
Research related to automatically detecting Alzheimer's disease (AD) is important, given the high prevalence of AD and the high cost of traditional methods. Since AD significantly affects the content and acoustics of spontaneous speech,…
The research on mortality is an active area of research for any country where the conclusions are driven from the provided data and conditions. The domain knowledge is an essential but not a mandatory skill (though some knowledge is still…
New Berry--Esseen-type bounds, with explicit constant factors, for the distribution of the Student statistic and, equivalently, for that of the self-normalized sum of independent zero-mean random variables are obtained. These bounds are…
Richard A. Litherland was born in 1953 in England. He received his PhD at Trinity College in Cambridge in 1979 and moved to the USA in 1983. He had a lengthy and distinguished career as a professor of mathematics and researcher of…
