The Third Pacific Area Statistical Conference was held under the auspices of the Pacific Statistical Institute and with the support and cooperation of the Foundation for Advancement of International Science, the Japan Statistical Society and the Institute of Statistical Mathematics. The main theme of the conference was ''Statistical Sciences and Data Analysis''. The purpose was to bring together researchers in statistics and related fields to exchange results and problems in topics of mutual interest. The papers in this volume have been presented at the conference and have been carefully refereed and edited before their inclusion in the proceedings.

Proceedings of the Third Pacific Area Statistical Conference

Statistical Sciences and Data Analysis

Professor Puri is one of the most versatile and prolific researchers in the world in mathematical statistics. His research areas include nonparametric statistics, order statistics, limit theory under mixing, time series, splines, tests of normality, generalized inverses of matrices and related topics, stochastic processes, statistics of directional data, random sets, and fuzzy sets and fuzzy measures. His fundamental contributions in developing new rank-based methods and precise evaluation of the standard procedures, asymptotic expansions of distributions of rank statistics, as well as large deviation results concerning them, span such areas as analysis of variance, analysis of covariance, multivariate analysis, and time series, to mention a few. His in-depth analysis has resulted in pioneering research contributions to prominent journals that have substantial impact on current research. This book together with the other two volumes (Volume 2: Probability Theory and Extreme Value Theory; Volume 3: Time Series, Fuzzy Analysis and Miscellaneous Topics), are a concerted effort to make his research works easily available to the research community. The sheer volume of the research output by him and his collaborators, coupled with the broad spectrum of the subject matters investigated, and the great number of outlets where the papers were published, attach special significance in making these works easily accessible. The papers selected for inclusion in this work have been classified into three volumes each consisting of several parts. All three volumes carry a final part consisting of the contents of the other two, as well as the complete list of Professor Puri's publications.

On the occasion of the 65th birthday of Professor Madan L. Puri, the authors of this Festschrift pay their tribute to his scientific achievements in statistics. This volume reflects a selective survey of leading contemprary scientific trends and developments that are significantly related to ideas expressed and pursued in Madan L. Puri's work in statistics and related fields. The wide spectrum of scientific interest which characterizes Professor Puri's scientific activity is thus illuminated. The choice of papers offered combines fundamental principles with interesting applications, selected for their originality and insight, and for their influence on the modern approach to statistics, probability and related fields.
