1st announcement
The <http://www.mat.uc.pt/~wni2008> Workshop on Nonparametric Inference –
WNI2008 is a three day event that will take place in the Department of
Mathematics, University of Coimbra, Portugal, on June 26-28, 2008. This
Workshop is organized under the auspices of <http://www.cim.pt/> CIM (

The goals of this workshop are to illustrate the main trends in a number of
subjects in nonparametric statistics, to facilitate the exchange of research
ideas and to promote collaboration among researchers in the field.
Among the themes intended to be covered in this meeting are curve
estimation, model checking, functional data, survival analysis, adaptive
bandwidth choice and bootstrap.
