Title: Multicriteria optimization problems in Statistics
Abstract: Many statistical procedures can be viewed as solutions of
optimization problems. A careful and detailed analysis of these procedures
reveals that many of these problems are essentially multiobjective
optimization problems. Further, most of the standard statistical procedures
aim at finding an efficient (nondominated) solution.
Our objective in this paper is to introduce some of the statistical problems
that can be formulated and solved as multicriteria optimization problems.
