JSM 2015: Call for Abstracts, Chairs

摘要

The 2015 Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM) will be held in Seattle, Washington. This is the largest annual statistics conference held in North America each year. The theme for JSM 2015 is "Statistics: Making Better Decisions," which focuses on making an impact on decision-makers in government, organizations, industry, business, and large societies through better deci-sionmaking and well-informed policies using data-driven statistical methods and computing tools. The JSM 2015 Program Committee has put together 183 invited sessions. The topics are interesting and diverse, ranging from new machine learning methods and computing tools to personalized medicine, Big Data visualization and graphics, imaging data, health policies, and fun sports data. I hope you will enjoy the program and participate by presenting your work, attending talks, visiting poster sessions, and taking Continuing Education courses.
