    Walking on a Thin Bridge Linking Teaching-

    Research-Teaching Excites and Rewards Me

     

    ABSTRACT

    A link between teaching and research excites me. My recent research on statistical inference, linear models, and applied probability has often originated from teaching. In this presentation, I will highlight some of those encounters. As time permits, I will touch upon selected topics involving covariance, correlation, independence, Student’s t-distribution, multivariate (non-) normality, sufficiency, information, and ancillarity.
