Proceedings of the 1979 Army Numerical Analysis and Computers Conference, Held 14-16 February 1979, White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico.

Abstract

The theme of this Army-wide conference was Data Analysis and Approximation. These areas are of special interest to several scientists at the host installation as well as others throughout all the Army laboratories. Titles of addresses from invited speakers show that most related their topics to the theme: Nonlinear Least Squares and Separation of Variables; Robust Software for Robust Statistics; Approximating Functions of Two Variables by Functions of One Variable; New Techniques in the Use of Splines for Data Analysis; and Nonparametric Density Estimation. Another very important phase of the meetings was the contributed papers presented by scientists in government laboratories and university professors. These individuals often present problems they have just recently solved. This year many of these presentations dealt with data analysis in one form or another such as Hit and Kill probabilities for Shooting Through Trees; Impact Predictions of Missiles for Range Flight Safety, Surface Miss Distance; Naval-Gun Control Systems; Mesoscale Atmospheric Analysis; Bacterial Survival, Gun Motion; Nonlinear Programming, etc.
