 September /17-20/2006

 

 Meeting and forming the group. Deciding on the topic “Estimating the mean of high valued observations in  high dimensions”. The emphasis

is on studying a sparse setup, where most means are (nearly) zero.

 November/ 4-7/2006

 

 A visit of Junyong  Park to SAMSI

 

 

 The group discussed and read the papers mentioned in the reference

Section, of our  Technical Report “ Estimating the mean of high valued observations in high dimensions”. While working on that paper

we realized that our techniques and findings are also relevant to the

subject of Local False Discovery Rate. The mentioned Technical

Report was submitted to Biometrika  November/21/2006.
