This seminar is organized by the Graduate Program in Statistics through the Department of Mathematics & Statistics at McMaster University. Every person interested in the seminar talks, from inside or outside the McMaster community, is welcome to attend. We cover a wide range of topics ranging from very applied problems to the most current theoretical developments in the probability and statistics.
Below you will find the list of speakers and the topics or titles of their talks, and links to lists of past seminars. There is a summary, information about the speaker, and a list of references for each seminar.
Any suggestions are welcome. Just send e-mail to the Seminar Coordinator.
The seminar coordinator for 2004-2005 is Román Viveros-Aguilera
