The Fourth Purdue Symposium on Statistical Decision Theory and
Related Topics was held at Purdue University during the period June
15-20, 1986. The symposium brought together many prominent leaders
and younger researchers in statistical decision theory and related
areas. The 65 invited papers and discussions presented at the
symposium are collected in this two-volume work. The papers are
grouped into a total of seven parts. Volume I has three parts: Part
1 -Conditioning and Likelihood; Part 2 -Bayes and Empirical Bayes
Analysis; and Part 3 -Decision Theoretic Estimation. Part 1
contains the proceedings of a Workshop on Conditioning, which was
held during the symposium. Most of the articles in Volume I involve
either conditioning or Bayesian ideas, resulting in a volume of
considerable interest to conditionalists and Bayesians as well as
to decision-theorists. Volume II has four parts: Part 1 -Selection,
Ranking, and Multiple Com parisons; Part 2 -Asymptotic and
Sequential Analysis; Part 3 -Estimation and Testing; and Part 4
-Design and Comparison of Experiments and Distributions. These
articles encompass the leading edge of much current research in
math ematical statistics, with decision theory, of course,
receiving special emphasis. It should be noted that the papers in
these two volumes are by no means all theoretical; many are applied
in nature or are creative review papers."
