Olga Korosteleva is a Russian-American statistician. She is a professor of statistics at California State University, Long Beach, and the author of several books on statistics.
Korosteleva grew up in the Soviet Union, but was educated in the US after her father, statistician Alexander Korostelev, became a professor at Wayne State University. [1] She went to Wayne State herself as an undergraduate, completing a bachelor's degree there in 1996, and then earned a Ph.D. in statistics from Purdue University in 2002. [2] Her dissertation, Limit theorem for the spread of branching process with stabilizing drift, was supervised by Thomas Sellke. [3]
As well as holding a faculty position at California State University, Long Beach, Korosteleva has served as president of the Southern California Chapter of the American Statistical Association, and editor-in-chief of the chapter newsletter. [2]
Korosteleva is the author or co-author of books including:
Joseph O'Rourke is the Spencer T. and Ann W. Olin Professor of Computer Science at Smith College and the founding chair of the Smith computer science department. His main research interest is computational geometry.
Henry Berthold Mann was a professor of mathematics and statistics at Ohio State University. Mann proved the Schnirelmann-Landau conjecture in number theory, and as a result earned the 1946 Cole Prize. He and his student developed the ("Mann-Whitney") U-statistic of nonparametric statistics. Mann published the first mathematical book on the design of experiments Mann (1949).
