Grace Wahba and the Wisconsin Spline School
Chong Gu and Yuedong Wang
Grace Wahba is best known as the mother of the Wisconsin spline school, the primary driving force behind a rich family of data smoothing methods developed by herself, collaborators, and generations of students. In this article, we outline the smoothing spline approach to data smoothing.
Nina Nikolaevna Uraltseva
Darya Apushkinskaya, Arshak Petrosyan and Henrik Shahgholian
Nina Uraltseva has made lasting contributions to mathematics with her pioneering work in various directions in analysis and PDEs and the development of elegant and sophisticated analytical techniques. In this article, we summarize her work with some details on selected results.
Stochastic Networks and Reflecting Brownian Motion: The Mathematics of Ruth Williams
Ioana Dumitriu, Todd Kemp and Kavita Ramanan
Ruth Williams has made foundational contributions to the understanding of reflecting diffusions and has dramatically advanced the scientific understanding of a wide array of stochastic networks experiencing heavy traffic. In this article, we present the main themes of her prodigious career.
