Mathematical Statistics and its Applications 1000-1S96ST

The goal of the seminar is to improve and enhance the understanding of mathematical statistics acquired when attending courses of lectures
"Statistics I and II". Talks at the seminar concern selected theoretical issues as well as applications of statistics e.g. to insurance, survey sampling, biology.
Some examples of discussed topics are: Bayesian paradigm, generalized linear models, asymptotic theory of maximum likelihood, choice of model, rank methods. The range of topics may vary from year to year, but we always try to include most important methods.
Recommended references are given at the meetings.
