It includes contributions from eminent statisticians such as Joe Gani, Clive Granger, Chris Heyde, R Nishii, C R Rao, P K Sen and Sue Wilson. By exploring and investigating deeper, these papers enlarge the reservoir in the represented areas of research, such as bioinformatics, estimating functions, financial statistics, generalized linear models, goodness of fit, iMathematical statisticsCongressesCombinatorial analysisCongressesElectronic books.Mathematical statisticsCombinatorial analysis515Gulati Chandra864581Forum for Interdisciplinary Mathematics.International Conference(8th :2001 :University of Wollongong)International Conference on Statistics, Combinatorics and Related AreasMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458179303321Advances in statistics, combinatorics and related areas1929881UNINA
