it deals with some hot topics in sampling theory, such as calibration, quantile-regression and multiple frame surveys and with innovative methodologies in important topics of both sampling theory and applications.

One of the main applications of statistical smoothing techniques is nonparametric regression. Smoothing techniques in regression as well as other statistical methods are increasingly applied in biosciences and economics. Introduced are new developments in scatterplot smoothing and applications in statistical modelling.

The failure of standard multivariate statistics to analyze such functional data has led the statistical community to develop appropriate statistical methodologies, called Functional Data Analysis (FDA).

This volume collects latest methodological and applied contributions on functional, high-dimensional and other complex data, related statistical models and tools as well as on operator-based statistics.

This book covers methods for spatial statistical analysis suitable for modeling spatial information in support of decision systems. Includes data mining, point processes analysis, nearest neighbor statistics and cluster detection, Fuzzy Regression and more.

The numerous applications (micro-arrays, paleo- ecological data, radar waveforms, spectrometric curves, speech recognition, continuous time series, 3-D images, etc.) in various fields (biology, econometrics, environmetrics, the food industry, medical sciences, paper industry, etc.) make researching this statistical topic very worthwhile.

Statisticians and experimentalists will find the latest trends in optimal experimental design research. Some papers are pioneering contributions, leading to new open research problems. It is a colection of peer reviewed papers.

The next four meetings were in 1990 (St Kyrik monastery, Bulgaria), 1992 (Petrodvorets, St Petersburg, Russia), 1995 (Spetses, Greece) and 1998 (Marseilles, France). It is a tradition of these meetings to provide low cost accommodation, low fees and financial support for the travel of young and Eastern participants.
