Session Description:

The last decade has seen a marked increase in development of tools for functional data analysis (fda) to accommodate technical advancement in data storage and continuous data monitoring. These fda methods allow for flexible modeling of associations between high-dimensional data streams and covariates across time or space. In particular, fda methods have been revolutionary for the analysis of wearable device and biomedical imaging data, application areas where previous approaches required data reduction resulting in loss of power and information. In this proposed session, leading statisticians will discuss current methods for functional data analysis motivated by problems arising in biomedical imaging and wearable device data. Our speakers focus on hot topics in fda, including quantile functional regression, computationally efficient methods for ultra-high-dimensional data, and informative information processes.
