BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS AND STATISTICS CALENDAR Week of November 3 - 7 Monday, November 3 3:30 INVITED STATISTICS SEMINAR - Room 459 MSC Lev Klebanov, BGSU and St. Petersburg State University for Architecture and Civil Engineering Model Construction in Statistical Estimation Theory Tuesday, November 4 11:30 ALGEBRA SEMINAR - Room 447 MSC Sergey Shpectorov, Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics, BGSU. 2:30 ANALYSIS SEMINAR - Room 459 MSC Neal Carothers, Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics, BGSU. "Injective Banach lattices" Abstract: After (once again) finishing up a few details from a previous talk, I will present a characterization of injective C(K) spaces in terms terms of a lattice property of C(K); or, equivalently, in terms of a topological property of K. Wednesday, November 5 2:30 Applied Statistics and Operations Research Guest Lecture Series 115 Olscamp Hall Representatives of Crown, Cork, and Seal, Inc. of Perrysburg, Ohio "Using statistics to make a can" Thursday, November 6 3:30 SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING SEMINAR - Room 459 MSC Friday, November 7 3:30 Coffee 3:45 COLLOQUIUM - Room 459 MSC E. M. Carter, University of Guelph "Multivariate Approaches to Bioassay" Abstract: A variety of examples will be given to illustrate the use of multivariate procedures in the analysis of bioassays. Data can be in the form of continuous, categorical or mixed responses, and a generalized multivariate linear model is proposed to handle this type of data. Typical examples arise in the areas of teratology, toxicity experiments over time with natural mortality and immunity, and the standardization of drugs such as insulin.
