But rather, perhaps the even more dangerous possibility of man-made criminal and terrorist actions that could trigger a nuclear cloud release from a reactor, and ensuing nuclear fallout, that my late statistician father researched the probability predictions of at the University of California, Berkeley, half a century ago.
Kay has published numerous articles in operations research, probability, and finance journals.
Roll the Dice: Students research the probabilities of disasters and their severity in their region and invent a game of chance to demonstrate their findings.
This paper researches the detection probability of aircraft by radars under the condition of electronic warfare, and completes the mathematical statistical analysis of the simulation results.
His field of research is probability and statistics with a special emphasis on change-point analysis, limit theorems in probability, and asymptotic statistics.
His fields of research include probability and stochastic processes with a special emphasis on random fields, limit theorems in probability, and the reconstruction of stochastic processes from discrete observations.Josef G. Steinebach received his PhD in Mathematics from the University of Dusseldorf in 1976.
After graduating in 1934, he was elected to a fellowship at King's College (his college since 1931) in recognition of his research in probability theory.
A: My work tends to be basic research in probability theory, so often it's the development of theory, sometimes directed at better understanding algorithms or statistical methods.
Newly awarded a 2012 Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship, Allan Sly, assistant professor of statistics, talks about his research into probability theory, his students and his own days as a UC Berkeley graduate student.
I still come across problems all the time which are similar in nature, and still get the same thrill when I find the right trick to solve them - there is always a trick, a right way of looking at things, I think this is one of the distinctive characteristics of doing research in probability.
My area of research is probability, specifically random walk and Brownian motion.
