I have been a professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Bowling Green State University since 1979. I've had two sabbaticals: 1986-87 at the University of Southampton (England) and 1994-95 at Duke University. My Academic Interests: Click here if you want to see a list of my publications and technical reports. Bayesian inference. Bayesian statistics is based on two ideas. First, uncertainty about unknown quantities is expressed using the language of subjective probability, and, given new information or data, probabilities are updated using Bayes rule. I believe that Bayesian inferential methods have advantages over classical statistical procedures for a wide range of inferential problems. I'm particularly interested in developing inferential procedures for the class of generalized linear models. Recently, I've written papers on how to check the goodness of a model from a Bayesian viewpoint. The analysis of sports data.

Activities in Probability Home Following are some activities relating to the topic of probability. The items marked with are the contributions of the Summer 2000 participants. Contents of this Page Probability Rock, Paper, Scissors - The Study of Chance Probability Background: During the 1500’s Cardano was one of the first people to study probability (probably because he was a noted gambler). In the 1600’s Fermat in his correspondence with Pascal develop the theory of probability. Pascal also worked on the concept of mathematical expectation and there is a distribution in probability named after him. In the 1700’s DeMoivre published the Doctrine of Chances, which contained a series of solved problems, such as: “Suppose that three tickets will be given prizes in a lottery having 40,000 tickets. What is the chance of winning at least one prize if you buy 8000 of those tickets?” Students often hear and occasionally use statements of probability in their daily lives. They note the weather forecasts when they wonder whether a game will be held or school canceled. They also use more ambiguous general phrases such as not likely, no way, and probably but, as with much of everyday speech, there are many misuses of probability terminology and concepts. Purpose: To introduce and develop the concept of probability.

The reduced functional differential equation is formulated as an infinite dimensional differential equation which is reduced by a centre manifold method to a 4-dimensional singular ODE with certain symmetries and with heteroclinic structure. The bifurcations of solutions from heteroclinic ones are investigated for singular perturbed systems. Tuesday, March 18

What many people refer to as 'good luck' can actually be explained by a little knowledge about probability and statistics. Our dice game allows you to see how increasing or decreasing the number of dice rolls effects an outcome. So give it a try, choose the number of rolls you would like to make and roll the dice!

Preface to Teaching Statistics Using Baseball Jim Albert Department of Mathematics and Statistics Bowling Green State University Over twenty years, this author has been in the enterprise of teaching introductory statistics to an audience that is taking the class to satisfy their mathematics requirement. This is a challenging endeavor because the students have little prior knowledge about the discipline of statistics and many of them are anxious about mathematics and computation. Statistical concepts and examples are usually presented in a particular context. However, one obstacle in teaching this introductory class is that we often describe the statistical concepts in a context, such as medicine, law, or agriculture, that is completely foreign to the undergraduate student. The student has a much better chance of understanding concepts in probability and statistics if they are described in a familiar context. Many students are familiar with sports either as a participant or a spectator. They know of the popular athletes, such as Tiger Woods and Barry Bonds, and they are generally knowledgeable with the rules of the major sports, such as baseball, football, and basketball.

Expectations Formulate questions that can be addressed with data and collect, organize, and display relevant data to answer them pose questions and gather data about themselves and their surroundings; sort and classify objects according to their attributes and organize data about the objects; represent data using concrete objects, pictures, and graphs. Select and use appropriate statistical methods to analyze data describe parts of the data and the set of data as a whole to determine what the data show. Develop and evaluate inferences and predictions that are based on data discuss events related to students' experiences as likely or unlikely. Understand and apply basic concepts of probability Ideas about probability at this level should be informal and focus on judgments that children make because of their experiences. Activities that underlie experimental probability, such as tossing number cubes or dice, should occur at this level, but the primary purpose for these activities is focused on other strands, such as number.
