Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Normal distribution
  • Probability distribution

His primary scientific interests are in Statistics, Mathematical optimization, Applied mathematics, Sequential probability ratio test and Calculus. In his works, Abraham Wald undertakes multidisciplinary study on Statistics and Population. His Mathematical optimization study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mathematical economics, Mathematical proof and General linear model.

His Applied mathematics research incorporates elements of Nonparametric statistics, Exact test and Limit. His Sequential probability ratio test study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Expected value, Combinatorics and Character. He integrates Calculus with Subject in his study.

His most cited work include:

  • Statistical decision functions (1765 citations)
  • Sequential Tests of Statistical Hypotheses (1382 citations)
  • Optimum Character of the Sequential Probability Ratio Test (929 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Abraham Wald spends much of his time researching Statistics, Discrete mathematics, Probability and statistics, Calculus and Mathematical economics. His Statistics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Class and Applied mathematics. His studies deal with areas such as Decision rule, Decision theory, System of linear equations and Zero as well as Mathematical economics.

His Mathematical proof research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Quantile function and Heaviside step function. His work carried out in the field of Heaviside step function brings together such families of science as Mathematical optimization and Normal distribution. His research in Sequential probability ratio test intersects with topics in Expected value, Sequential test and Null hypothesis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Statistics (40.85%)
  • Discrete mathematics (14.08%)
  • Probability and statistics (8.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1949-1980)?

  • Statistics (40.85%)
  • Probability and statistics (8.45%)
  • Discrete mathematics (14.08%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Statistics, Probability and statistics, Discrete mathematics, Mathematical economics and Randomization. He interconnects Zero and Class in the investigation of issues within Discrete mathematics. He has researched Mathematical economics in several fields, including Quantile function, Heaviside step function, System of linear equations and Normal distribution.

Many of his Randomization research pursuits overlap with Theoretical computer science, Decision analysis, Optimal decision, Decision tree and Zero.

Between 1949 and 1980, his most popular works were:

  • Statistical decision functions (1765 citations)
  • On Some Systems of Equations of Mathematical Economics (129 citations)
  • Relations among certain ranges of vector measures (116 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Normal distribution
  • Probability distribution

His primary areas of investigation include Mathematical economics, Discrete mathematics, System of linear equations, Vector and Algebra. The various areas that Abraham Wald examines in his Mathematical economics study include Decision tree, Optimal decision and Statistics. His Discrete mathematics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fundamental lemma and Euclidean space.
