Research will be conducted in several areas of statistics:                 (1)  Marden will work on nonnull models for rank statistics and                 the development of new rank procedures;  (2)  Martinsek will work               on sequential models for determining the estimator as well as the               sample size in location and regression models; comparison of                    slope estimates in adaptive stochastic approximation; and                       asymptotically optimal procedures in multistage estimation;  (3)                Stout's research will be on probabilistic modeling and                          statistical analysis for interesting data structures, including                 those found in multiple item response tests and where there are                 latent variables;  (4)  Wijsman's research will include the study               of sequential confidence sets and develop a method of using cross               sections to deriving distributions in models that admit                         invariance transformations.                                                          This research in the general area of statistics aims to come               to grips with a broad variety of mathematical and methodological                problems that have been encountered in current efforts to extend                statistics to a broader variety of applications.  Included are                  major thrusts to develop sequential methods for analyzing data,                 with the potential for saving resources in scientific                           experimentation.
