In it we provide personal reminiscences and original research articles contributed by his former students, collaborators and friends over this timeframe. Professor Thompson was Noah Harding Professor of Statistics at Rice University where he was the founding chairman of the Department of Statistics. A frequent consultant to government and the private sector, he held adjunct professorships at the MD Anderson Cancer Center and the University of Texas School of Public Health. He is a fellow of the American Statistical Society (ASA), the International Statistical Institute (ISI), and the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS). Dr. Thompson was the recipient of the Army Wilks Award for his work on defense-related data analysis and modeling, and was also the recipient of the ASA's Don Owen Award for his international work in statistical process control. As a researcher, he made pioneering contributions to our understanding of Statistical Model Building, Biomathematics, Quality Control and Computational Finance. He has performed ground breaking research in the AIDS epidemic and cancer modeling. Additionally he developed the SIMEST algorithm for creating multiple replicates of computer generated pseudo realities which can then be used for estimating the key parameters of the underlying model. Professor Thompson and his students have also developed algorithms that provide algebraic techniques for finding underlying structures of data sets of high dimensionality. He is the author of over 14 books, five of which were published by Wiley, and two by Chapman & Hall. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
