Request a sales quoteStatistics plays a central role in industrial quality control and high-class quality maintenance in products. Statistical designs and data collection are central also in government planning and program implementation. These two important aspects of statistical theory and applications will be of focus of this volume. We aim to cover as many applications that use statistics as an underlying tool in bringing the best quality products and industrial designs. Indian Statistical Institute played an important role in developing quality control measures during the 1940s-70s due to C.R. Rao and those methods helped to train several statistical industries and engineers across the world, for example, Genichi Taguchi of Japan, etc who revolutionized industrial quality in Japan. There are several such examples.
- Easy to understand concepts
- Materials provided in implementable way
- Written experts in the field
Every effort will be made to get chapters written in a detailed and training fashion rather than typical journal-type articles. We hope to make the volume remain the academic circles for the years and to be used by students and advanced researchers.

Ravindra Khattree
Ravindra Khattree is a distinguished professor of statistics at Oakland University, U.S.A. and a co-director of the Center for Data Science and Big Data Analytics at the same university. In 1985, he earned a doctorate from the University of Pittsburgh with Calyampudi Radhakrishna Rao as his advisor. His contribution to the Fountain–Khattree–Peddada Theorem in Pitman measure of closeness is one of the important results of his work. Khattree is the coauthor of two books and has coedited two volumes. He has served as an associate editor of the Communications in Statistics journal. He was Chief editor of Journal of Statistics and Applications for more than ten years. He is an elected fellow of the American Statistical Association. In 2002, Khattree received the Young Researcher Award from the International Indian Statistical Association. Khattree was honored with a fellowship in the American Statistical Association in 2003 and became an elected member of the International Statistical Institute in 2004. He is also a recipient of Oakland University Research Excellence Award (2008).

Arni S.R. Srinivasa Rao
Arni S.R. Srinivasa Rao works in pure mathematics, applied mathematics, probability, and artificial intelligence and applications in medicine. He is a Professor at the Medical College of Georgia, Augusta University, U.S.A, and the Director of the Laboratory for Theory and Mathematical Modeling housed within the Division of Infectious Diseases, Medical College of Georgia, Augusta, U.S.A. Previously, Dr. Rao conducted research and/or taught at Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford (2003, 2005-07), Indian Statistical Institute (1998-2002, 2006-2012), Indian Institute of Science (2002-04), University of Guelph (2004-06). Until 2012, Dr. Rao held a permanent faculty position at the Indian Statistical Institute. He has won the Heiwa-Nakajima Award (Japan) and Fast Track Young Scientists Fellowship in Mathematical Sciences (DST, New Delhi). Dr. Rao also proved a major theorem in stationary population models, such as, Rao's Partition Theorem in Populations, Rao-Carey Theorem in stationary populations, and developed mathematical modeling-based policies for the spread of diseases like HIV, H5N1, COVID-19, etc. He developed a new set of network models for understanding avian pathogen biology on grid graphs (these were called chicken walk models), AI Models for COVID-19 and received wide coverage in the science media. Recently, he developed concepts such as “Exact Deep Learning Machines”, and “Multilevel Contours” within a bundle of Complex Number Planes.
