Series Lecture III
Statistics: The Science in Everyday life
Dr. Hanfeng Chen
Bowling Green State University

Abstract: Statistics is the science to infer some population characteristics based on a (small) portion of the population. It may be the most inter-disciplinary science. It is demanded by almost all other sciences and engages in everyday life. In this talk, the nature of statistical science and its applications will be described and discussed.
