The Way of the Statistician and the Way of the Physicist

09 February 2021
Corporate Membership

The rules of evidence as presented in statistics textbooks are not the same as the informal criteria that statisticians and practitioners use in deciding what methods to use.  What are the similarities and differences between statistical thinking and the modeling done in the physical sciences?

David Bailey, a physicist at the University of Toronto, writes:

The other reason for this email is that I’d be curious to (eventually) read your comments on this new article by Anne‐Laure Boulesteix, Sabine Hoffmann, Alethea Charlton, and Heidi Seibold in Significance magazine: “A replication crisis in methodological research?”  I [Bailey] have done a bit of research on scientific reproducibility, and I am always curious to understand better how statistical methods are validated in the messy real world.  I often say that physics is much easier to do than medical and social sciences because “electrons are all identical, cheap, and unchanging – people are not.”

I read the linked article by Boulesteix et al., and I agree with their general points, although they perhaps underestimate the difficulty of these evaluations.  Here are three relevant articles from 2012-2014:

  1. In a 2012 article, Eric Loken and I criticize statisticians for not practicing what we preach regarding teaching rather than methodology, but a similar issue.
  2. I ask how we choose our methods; see section 26.2 of this article from 2014.  
  3. Another take on what we consider as convincing evidence is this article from 2014 with Keith O’Rourke, which begins as follows:

    The rules of evidence as presented in statistics textbooks are not the same as the informal criteria that statisticians and practitioners use in deciding what methods to use. According to the official rules, statistical decisions should be based on careful design of data collection, reliable and valid measurement, and something approximating unbiased or calibrated estimation. The first allows both some choice of the assumptions and an opportunity to increase their credibility, the second tries to avoid avoidable noise and error and third tries to restrict to methods that are seemingly fair. This may be fine for evaluating psychological experiments, or medical treatments, or economic policies, but we as statisticians do not generally follow these rules when considering improvements in our teaching  nor when deciding what statistical methods to use.

So, yes, it’s kind of embarrassing that statisticians are always getting on everybody else’s case for not using random sampling, controlled experimentation, and reliable and valid measurements—but then we don’t use these tools in our own decision making.

P.S.  On Bailey’s webpage there’s a link to this page on The Way of the Physicist:

Our students should be able to
– construct mathematical models of physical systems
– solve the models analytically or computationally
– make physical measurements of the systems
– compare the measurements with the expectations
– communicate the results, both verbally and in writing
– improve and iterate
and to apply these skills to both fundamental and applied problems.

I like that!  It’s kind of like The Way of the Statistician.  Bailey also wrote this article about how we learn from anomalies, in a spirit similar to our God is in Every Leaf of Every Tree principle.

P.P.S.  I sent the above comments to Boulesteix et al. (the authors of the above-linked article), who replied:

We agree with your discussion about the shortcomings of the sources of evidence on the effectiveness of statistical methods in Gelman (2013) and Gelman and O’Rourke (2014). Indeed, we generally expect methodological papers to provide evidence on the effectiveness of the proposed methods and this evidence is often given through mathematical theory or computer simulations “which are only as good as their as-sumptions”  (Gelman, 2013). When evidence of improved performance is given in benchmarking studies, the number of benchmark data sets is often very limited and the process used to select datasets is unclear. In this situation, researchers are incentivized to use their researcher degrees of freedom to show their methods from the most appealing angle. We do not suggest any intentional cheating here, but in the fine-tuning of method settings, data sets and pre-processing steps, researchers (ourselves included) are masters of self-deception. If we do not at least encourage authors to minimize cherry-picking when providing this evidence, then it is just silly to ask for evidence.

We also agree with you that the difficulties of becoming more evidence-based should not be underestimated. At the same time, we are not arguing that it is an easy task, we say that it is a necessary one. As you say in Gelman and O’Rourke (2014), statistics is a young discipline and, in the current statistical crisis in science, we feel that we can learn from the progress that is being made in other disciplines (while keeping in mind the differences between statistics and other fields). Currently, “statisticians and statistical practitioners seem to rely on a sense of anecdotal evidence based on personal experience and on the attitudes of trusted colleagues” (Gelman, 2013). For much of its history, medicine was more of an art than a science and relied on this type of anecdotal evidence, which has only come to be considered insufficient in the last century. We might be able to learn important lessons from experiences in this field when it comes to evidence-based methodological research.

Starting from the list of evidence that you present in Gelman (2013) and Gelman and O’Rourke (2014), we might for instance establish a pyramid of evidence. The highest level of evidence in this pyramid could be systematic methodological reviews and pre-registered neutral  comparison  studies on a number of benchmark data sets determined through careful sample size calculation or based on neutral and carefully designed simulation studies. We have to admit that evidence on real data sets is easier to establish for methods where the principal aim is prediction rather than parameter estimation and we do not pretend to have the answer to all open questions. At the same time, it is encouraging to see that progress is being made on many fronts, ranging from the pre-registration of machine learning research (e.g.  NeurIPS2020 pre-registration experiment), to the replication of methodological studies, and to the elaboration of standardized reporting guidelines for simulation studies (see, e.g., De Bin et al., Briefings in Bioinformatics 2020 for first thoughts on this issue).

We appreciate your argument in Gelman and Loken (2012) that we should be more research based in our teaching practice. Exactly as applied statisticians should, in an ideal world, select statistical methods based on evidence generated by methodological statisticians, teaching statisticians should, in an ideal world, select teaching methods based on evidence generated by statisticians committed to didactics research. In both fields – teaching and research, it seems deplorable that we do not practice what we preach for other disciplines. In the long run, we also hope that our teaching will benefit from more evidence-based methodological research. Our students are often curious to know which method they should apply on their own data and, in the absence of neutral, high-quality studies on the comparative effectiveness of statistical methods, it is difficult to give a satisfactory answer to this question. All in all, we hope that we can stop being “cheeseburger-snarfing diet gurus who are unethical in charging for advice we wouldn’t ourselves follow” (Gelman and Loken (2012)) regarding both teaching and research.

I responded that I think they are more optimistic than I am about evidence-based medicine and evidence-based education research. It’s not so easy to select teaching methods based on evidence-based research. And for some concerns about evidence based medicine, see here.

Yoav Benjamini
The 2019 Karl Pearson Prize
2019: Yoav Benjamini

Yoav Benjamini was awarded for his Benjamini-Hochberg 1995 paper “Controlling the false discovery rate: a practical and powerful approach to multiple testing” (J. Roy. Statist. Soc. Ser. B 57, 1995, no. 1, 289–300).

The paper by Benjamini and Hochberg, cited more than 50,000 times, introduced the false discovery rate or FDR that is widely used in diverse sciences to make simultaneous inference about a large number of hypotheses. FDR liberalizes the threshold for identifying hypotheses worth further investigation while at the same time controlling the rate of false discoveries. It has become an essential part of the analysis pipeline of complex data around the world. In addition to its wide applicability, the FDR paper includes elegant mathematical statistics.

Roderick J. Little
The 2017 Karl Pearson Prize
2017: Roderick J. Little

The 2017 Karl Pearson Prize was awarded to Roderick J. Little and Donald B. Rubin for their book Statistical Analysis With Missing Data, published by John Wiley & Sons (1987).

The work of Roderick J. Little and Donald B. Rubin, laid out in their seminal 1978 Biometrika papers and 1987 book, updated in 2002, has been no less than defining and transforming. Earlier missing data work was ad hoc at best. Little and Rubin defined the field and provided the methodological and applied communities with a useful and usable taxonomy and a set of key results. Today, their terminology and methodology is used more than ever. Their work has been transforming for the deep impact it had and has on both statistical practice and theory. It is one of the rare topics that has continued for the past thirty years to be studied and developed in academia, government and industry. For example, it plays a key role in the current work on sensitivity analysis with incomplete data.

The prize was presented on 21 July 2017 at the 61st ISI World Statistics Congress in Marrakech.

Kung-Yee Liang
The 2015 Karl Pearson Prize
2015: Kung-Yee Liang

The prize was awarded for their paper “Longitudinal data analysis using generalized linear models” published in Biometrika (1986).

This paper had an immediate and sustained impact on both theory and methodology in statistics and biostatistics, as well as on applications in medical, physical and social sciences. In the early 1980’s, inference using generalized linear models was enabling regression methods to be quickly adapted to models and data with non-normal responses. At the same time the collection of repeated measurements on the same individual was a prominent feature of work in social sciences, medicine, public health, and other areas of science. Liang and Zeger showed how to adapt the generalized linear models framework to these settings, using methodology they proposed under the name generalized estimating equations (GEE). This methodology is now a staple component of applied statistics courses, of statistical computing packages, and of hundreds upon hundreds of analyses in diverse subject matter fields. The theoretical basis for the approach has been refined, and extended, to encompass a wide range of models with complex dependencies. The paper was included in the 1997 volume of Breakthroughs in Statistics, accompanied by a comprehensive overview by Peter Diggle.

The prize was presented on 31 July 2015 at the ISI World Statistics Congress in Rio de Janeiro, and was followed by the Karl Pearson Lecture by Scott Zeger.

Peter McCullagh
The 2013 Karl Pearson Prize
2013: Peter McCullagh

The inaugural Karl Pearson Prize was awarded for their monograph Generalized Linear Models (1983).

This book has changed forever teaching, research and practice in statistics. It provides a unified and self-contained treatment of linear models for analyzing continuous, binary, count, categorical, survival, and other types of data, and illustrates the methods on applications from different areas. The monograph is based on several groundbreaking papers, including “Generalized linear models,” by Nelder and Wedderburn, JRSS-A (1972), “Quasi-likelihood functions, generalized linear models, and the Gauss-Newton method,” by Wedderburn, Biometrika (1974), and “Regression models for ordinal data,” by P. McCullagh, JRSS-B (1980). The implementation of GLM was greatly facilitated by the development of GLIM, the interactive statistical package, by Baker and Nelder. In his review of the GLIM3 release and its manual in JASA 1979 (pp. 934-5), Peter McCullagh wrote that “It is surprising that such a powerful and unifying tool should not have achieved greater popularity after six or more years of existence.” The collaboration between McCullagh and Nelder has certainly remedied this issue and has resulted in a superb treatment of the subject that is accessible to researchers, graduate students, and practitioners.

The prize was presented on 27 August 2013 at the ISI World Statistics Congress in Hong Kong, and was followed by the Karl Pearson Lecture by Peter McCullagh.

Professor emerita Nan Laird
Winner of the 2021 International Prize in Statistics
2021: Professor emerita Nan Laird

Nan Laird, Harvey V. Fineberg Professor of Biostatistics (Emerita) at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, is recognized for her work on powerful methods that gave researchers the tools they needed to answer important questions in health, medicine, psychology and more. This jump-started a field known as “random effects modeling for longitudinal data analysis,” and the methods Laird introduced in 1982 are still the most widely used techniques in both observational studies and clinical trials today.

ISI Fund for the Women’s Statistical Literacy Project

The ISI Statistical Capacity Building (SCB) Committee invites ISI members to support, through donations, the project “Women’s Statistical Literacy” (WSL). The aim is to increase statistical literacy of women in low and middle income countries, through hands-on courses devoted to increasing statistical skills in data management and visualization, using basic statistical tools and open source software.

The project stems from the work started by Eric Vance, member of the SCB Committee and founder of the Laboratory for Interdisciplinary Statistical Analysis (LISA), and Tinuke Adebanji who organized a workshop in Kumasi (Ghana) on “Building Capacity of Female Scientists in Data Analysis for Decision Making and Strategic Planning”. The ISI SCB Committee is planning to organize a second course in Ghana and is looking for new locations in Africa and elsewhere.

Robert Tibshirani
Winner of the 2021 Founders of Statistics Prize
2021: Professor Robert Tibshirani

He is selected as the recipient of the 2021 ISI Founders of Statistics Prize for his 1996 paper on ‘Regression Shrinkage and Selection via the LASSO’, published in the Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B, pp. 267-288. Robert Tibshirani is Professor of Biomedical Science and Statistics at Stanford University.

The Lasso paper (Tibshirani, 1996) has had 37,360 citations as of late January 2021 indicating its wide influence across statistics, data science, computer science and broadly in Science, Business and Economics. As we are faced with large and more complex data sets, the Lasso will continue to provide the basic underpinning for developments to handle such data. One reason for the paper’s impact is the clarity with which the paper is written with thorough and clear explanations of the method both analytically and geometrically. In statistics, biostatistics and machine learning, the Lasso (least absolute shrinkage and selection operator) is a regression analysis method that performs both variable selection and regularization in order to enhance the prediction accuracy and interpretability of the resulting statistical model. The Lasso is really the cornerstone of many modern methods of statistics and data science.

The contribution recognized by the Founders of Statistics Prize must be a research article or book published within the last three decades. Each Founders of Statistics (formerly known as Karl Pearson Prize) Award selection committee comprises renowned statisticians from across the world. The prize is given biennially, at the ISI World Statistics Congress (WSC), starting with the WSC in Hong Kong in August 2013. ISI is grateful to Elsevier Publishers for their ongoing sponsorship of the Prize.

Professor Michael L. Stein
WINNER OF THE 2023 FOUNDERS OF STATISTICS PRIZE
2023: Professor Michael L. Stein

Michael L. Stein, a distinguished professor has been awarded the 2023 Founders of Statistics Prize for Contemporary Research. 

Stein’s book, “Interpolation of Spatial Data: Some Theory for Kriging" published by Springer Series in Statistics in 1999, has had and continues to have a profound impact on spatial statistics, most prominently in theory, but also methodology and applications. Its influence extends beyond spatial statistics into other areas in which Gaussian processes are prominently used, including machine learning and computer experiments. Despite being
published over 20 years ago, references to the book, currently more than 4000 citations, are at their peak and have even increased in each of the last 4 years. It is broadly cited not just in the statistics and machine learning literatures, but also in a wide range of scholarly journals in disciplines including the geosciences, physics, chemistry, engineering, marketing, ecology and epidemiology. This book has fundamentally transformed spatial statistics and statistical applications of Gaussian processes, and its far-reaching impact will continue for years to come. It richly deserves the recognition of ISI Founders of Statistics Prize.

The Prize is awarded every two years through the sponsorship of Elsevier Publishers. The Founders of Statistics Prize for Contemporary Research Contributions is given in honor of the Founders of Statistics. It recognizes a research contribution that has had profound influence on statistical theory, methodology, practice, or applications. The contribution must be a research article or book published within the last three decades.
Michael L. Stein received the prize in July 2023 at the 64 th International Statistical Institute World Statistics Congress in Ottawa, Canada.

Heleno Bolfarine
2021 ISI Mahalanobis International Award Winner
2021: Professor Heleno Bolfarine

Professor Heleno Bolfarine is awarded the Mahalanobis International Award 2021 for his outstanding research contributions and academic leadership, his lifelong and outstanding performance in capacity building through teaching and mentoring several generations of statisticians in South America, and for his leadership and promotion of statistics and the statistics profession both at a national and an international level, with special emphasis on South America.

Brazil
Prof. Arellano-Valle
2019 ISI Mahalanobis International Award Winner
2019: Professor Arellano-Valle

Professor Arellano-Valle, Department of Statistics, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, has made outstanding contributions to Statistics in a developing country and region, as an academic leader, in professional leadership and as an inspiration and capacity-builder. His lifetime achievements in statistics (especially in developing countries), and promotion of best statistical practices truly reflect the spirit of the work of Professor P.C. Mahalanobis.

Professor Arellano-Valle is a long-time academic leader in Statistics in Chile and in South America. His contributions have been immense and diverse, especially so in multivariate analysis, skewed models, multivariate modelling, measurement error models, ordered data analysis, and statistical inference based in flexible models. His work in multivariate statistics, notably as a global leader in elliptically contoured distributions and skew-elliptical distributions, is particularly apt in memory of Professor P.C. Mahalanobis who made so many seminal contributions to multivariate statistics. In addition, in his advancement of research, Professor Arellano-Valle has systematically pursued collaboration, always involving others, very often junior people, offering guidance, ideas and encouragement. This style of work is reflected in the vast number of co-authors of his many papers, many being former students of his.

Professor Arellano-Valle is an inspiration and capacity-builder in Statistics. He is a very sought-after advisor and has trained and inspired a large number of students of different nationalities, both at the M.S. and Ph.D. levels, who have taken jobs in academia, government, and in industry. He is also well known for his inspiring teaching at all levels. He is regarded as the mentor and the cultural leader by many statisticians in a considerable portion of South America, especially but not only of the younger generations. Moreover, his ties with scientists from Europe, North America and, more recently, Central Asia have provided links with other environments, facilitating the interaction between South America and the world.

Chile
Professor Rahul Mukherjee
2017 ISI Mahalanobis International Award Winner
2017: Professor Rahul Mukherjee

The 2017 ISI Mahalanobis Award Selection Committee emphasized Prof. Mukerjee’s lifetime record of truly outstanding research in design of experiments and asymptotic theory of statistical inference, and significant research in survey sampling; his considerable professional service, including editorial boards for extended periods on some major statistical journals; and his teaching and mentoring which has contributed greatly to capacity development in a large developing country.

Prof. Mukerjee has authored or co-authored five books and published over 240 papers, many in major statistical journals including the Annals of Statistics, Biometrika, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society B, Statistica Sinica and Sankhya, the Indian statistics journal founded by Professor Mahalanobis. He has collaborated with several of the leading researchers in statistics worldwide. In the area of design of experiments, he is a leading expert on orthogonal array designs, diallel crosses, and fractional factorial plans. In asymptotic theory, he is the leading expert in the world in the area of probability matching priors, and on the use of the Bayesian shrinkage argument for obtaining asymptotic results. His original contributions to the methods and theory of sample surveys have found appeal in diverse fields.

Prof. Mukherjee also provided exceptional leadership in India through service to the Indian Official Statistics System as a member of the National Statistical Commission, the Indian Statistical Institute, University Grants Commission and the Agricultural Statistics Research Program. He has contributed significantly in neighbouring developing countries in promoting statistics and modernizing curricula in statistical science.

The award was presented on 21 July 2017 at the ISI World Statistics Congress in Marrakech and was followed by the presentation by Prof. Mukherjee of the Mahalanobis Prize Lecture, titled Research in experimental design in India: achievements and emerging challenges.

Arup Bose
2023 Mahalanobis International Award Winner
2023: Professor Arup Bose

Professor Arup Bose, an Indian citizen born in 1959, obtained his Bachelors, Masters and Doctorate degrees from the Indian Statistical Institute. After spending four years as an Assistant Professor at Purdue University, in 1991 he joined his alma mater as an Associate Professor. He became a Full Professor in 1995, and moved to its newest grade (HAG) when it was introduced in 2011. He has taken up occasional visiting positions abroad. 

Professor Bose’s research contribution is outstanding, with more than 150 publications in leading Statistics, Probability and Economics journals. He has published 5 books so far and is currently writing three more. He has made original contributions to both theory and methods, and these have found applications in diverse fields. Though his research work often involves difficult probability and mathematical theory, he has over 2000 Google scholar citations, showing that his work has been widely recognized and seminal in his fields of research. To name a few achievements, Arup Bose provided extremely novel applications of results from stochastic processes to derive asymptotic properties of maximum likelihood and Bayes estimates in nonlinear diusion processes. He provided a unified and comprehensive study of deep convergence properties of existing and new bootstrap and resampling schemes in a variety of estimators and models. He obtained higher order properties of a collection of sequential estimates in a very general framework. He achieved deep limiting results for U-statistics. He constructed a unified limiting theory of patterned random matrices. His recent book Random Matrices and Non-Commutative Probability is highlighting his many contributions to the field. 

The S.S. Bhatnagar Award is the most well-known award for Indian scientists below the age 45 and is conferred by the Prime Minister. Prof. Bose won this award in 2004. He has also won the C.R. Rao National Award in Statistics from the Ministry of Statistics, Govt. of India, the P.C. Mahalanobis Medal from the Indian National Science Academy, and the Young Researcher Award from the International Indian Statistical Association.

J.C. Bose Fellowships, awarded by the Dept. of Science and Technology (DST), Govt. of India, are the most generous fellowships for senior scientists of the country. It is renewable every 5 years, but competition is tough since one out of every three fellowships is not renewed by rule. Professor Bose was awarded this fellowship in 2009. His research contributions have been so deep and prolific, that he has obtained two rare extensions, till Dec. 2023.

Professor Bose is an elected Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS, USA), the Indian National Science Academy (INSA), the Indian Academy of Sciences (IASc.), the National Academy of Sciences, India (NASI) and the Indian Society for Probability and Statistics. He is also an Elected member of the International Statistical Institute.

Professor Bose has contributed with dedication to the profession. He has actively participated in committees for the IMS, ISI, Bernoulli Society, and the International Mathematical Union. Nationally, he has continued to serve and lead may of the scientific bodies/committees, under the auspices of the Govt. of India, such as the National Board for Higher Mathematics of Dept. of Atomic Energy, and the Policy Advisory Committees of Science and Education Research Board (SERB) of DST. He has also been serving in several important committees of the three Science Academies, INSA, IASC, and NASI. He has freely given his time for necessary academic administration with his Institute and other Institutions across India.

Sankhy¯a, was founded by P.C.Mahalanobis. Bose became a co-editor at the age of 34. He was a Co-editor for 8 years, doubling up as a Managing Editor for 5, and an Editor for 6. His service and dedication to the journal has been truly unparalleled. He has served many other journals, and is currently an Editor-in Chief of Random Matrix Theory and Applications.

His current research interests include high dimensional data, resampling, large dimensional random matrices, non-commutative probability, large dimensional time series and spectral inference. His earlier work includes, but not limited to, non-parametric methods, resampling, kernel density estimation, U-statistics, Mm-estimates, and strong and weak limit theorems.

He has worked on some of the most current and useful topics in probability and statistics, both singly and with generations of statisticians and probabilists. Many of his more than 65 collaborators are his mentees from their Bachelor’s and Master’s student days. He has dozens of major works with them. 

His works have found applications in many areas of importance. For example his works on resampling in time series and estimating equations in dependent models are highly cited by researchers in both theory and applications. His recent works in large dimensional matrices in high dimensional time series are being found to be very useful in statistical inference in such models. These ideas hold the potential for further applications. 

Professor Bose has been a pioneer in introducing new statistical concepts to the Indian subcontinent. He has an unparalleled record in India with regard to research, mentoring and overall capacity building. He has developed many research topics, became a global leader in these subjects, and in the process motivated many young minds to work in these areas.

He is a true inspiration to his students. He has directly supervised/mentored over 50 students at various levels, including PhDs, Master’s Dissertations, Master’s projects, Summer projects, and has also guided independent reading. Many of his publications have been co-authored with them, setting them firmly on the track of research and academia. These students are now faculty at some of the best academic institutions in the world. They have gone on to receive various accolades while being under his wings and after that. 

The variety and depth of his teaching is highly remarkable. He has taught courses as varied as Design of Experiments, Sample Surveys, Inference, Measure Theory, Stochastic Processes, Resampling, Random Matrices, Non-Commutative Probability, to name a few. He gave the first modern course on Time Series in his Institute. Master’s courses in Resampling and in Random Matrices have been introduced in the Indian Statistical Institute, following his leading works these areas. The first batch of students for these courses were taught by him. 

In the last 15 years or so, he has lectured regularly on Random Matrices for the benefit of Master’s and PhD students. There are now many researchers working in theory and applications in random Matrices in India, and their beginnings can be traced back to interactions with Prof. Bose. He has 4 books on Random Matrices, with a plan for more. This has made the difficult subject of Random Matrices and Non-commutative Probability accessible to young students and newcomers to this very important area. 

He has been involved in more than 100 seminars and conferences, either as an organizer or as speaker delivering plenary talks, keynote talks, special invited talks. He has also given series of lectures, often tailor made, at organisations such as the Reserve Bank of India. 

At the age of 64, he is one of the most active and approachable statisticians in the country. With a never say no attitude, he travels extensively to universities and research institutes across the country for outreach and other activities. He is always a willing and active collaborator, forming bridges between institutions and its members. He has ties with scientists from other countries, covering statistics and allied disciplines.

Ethics

Activities

The Advisory Board goes beyond responding solely to matters referred by the Executive Committee or Council. It actively proposes specific actions related to emerging ethical issues, which may arise from new principles or guidelines.

Types of activities the Advisory Board can consider:

Operational Committees

Operational Committees are under the guidance of the Executive Committee and the Council. These Committees focus on the overall functioning of the ISI and its long-term concerns as an international body representing the statistical profession and community. The chairs and members must be ISI members, and they are appointed by the Council on recommendation from the Executive Committee.
