Draperhttps://cdn.southampton.ac.uk/s3ri/news/2022/11/16-norman-r-draper.pageColleagues in S3RI are very sad to hear of the death of Norman Draper who was a visiting professor in the Department of Mathematics for many years. He passed away peacefully on June 19th at the age of 91, with his family around him, in Madison, Wisconsin. He was a Distinguished Professor of Statistics at the University of Wisconsin and was an outstanding pioneer in regression analysis and design of experiments. Many of us have used his books on regression analysis (Applied Regression Analysis with Harry Smith) and response surface methods (Response Surfaces, Mixtures and Ridge Analysis with George Box) in our teaching and research, but his close connections with Southampton city and the University are perhaps less well known./s3ri/news/2022/11/16-norman-r-draper.pageWed, 16 Nov 2022 00:00:00 +0000S3RI members appointed as Turing Fellowshttps://cdn.southampton.ac.uk/s3ri/news/2021/11/11-s3ri-members-appointed-as-turing-fellows.page/s3ri/news/2021/11/11-s3ri-members-appointed-as-turing-fellows.pageThu, 11 Nov 2021 00:00:00 +0000New S3RI Director appointed January 2021https://cdn.southampton.ac.uk/assets/imported/transforms/site/news-release/PageThumbnail/D4A81A76297B4EB0A04969168F6AF293/Paul Smith 2.jpg_SIA_JPG_fit_to_width_INLINE.jpg/s3ri/news/2021/05/12-new-s3ri-director.page/s3ri/news/2021/05/12-new-s3ri-director.pageWed, 12 May 2021 00:00:00 +0100Hukum Chandra 1972 - 2021https://cdn.southampton.ac.uk/assets/imported/transforms/site/news-release/PageThumbnail/80AB29D343DC49DCAB189F1D4DE5EEC9/hukum chandra2.jpg_SIA_JPG_fit_to_width_INLINE.jpg/s3ri/news/2021/05/05-hukum-chandra.page/s3ri/news/2021/05/05-hukum-chandra.pageWed, 05 May 2021 00:00:00 +0100Contributions of S3RI-members in coping with the Covid-19 crisishttps://cdn.southampton.ac.uk/s3ri/news/2020/09/29-contributions-of-s3ri-coping-with-covid-19-crisis.pageIn the following we have put together a collection of papers where S3RI-members contributed in coping with the Covid-19 crisis. /s3ri/news/2020/09/29-contributions-of-s3ri-coping-with-covid-19-crisis.pageTue, 29 Sep 2020 00:00:00 +0100S3RI wins Office for National Statistics contracthttps://cdn.southampton.ac.uk/s3ri/news/2020/09/21-s3ri-wins-office-for-nat-stat-contract.pageA team led by Professor Paul Smith of the Dept of Social Statistics & Demography has won the next phase of a contract to provide research consultancy in statistical methodology (and related areas) to the Office for National Statistics.
