Project ORION

These reports were issued in a two-year series associated with the proposal "Projection Pursuit Algorithms for Statistical Data Analysis" (Gene Golub and Werner Stuetzle, Principal Investigators) and were supported by the Department of Energy, the Office of Naval Reseach and the Army Research Office.

The full scope of the proposal and the ensuing research is summarized in the 1984 title, Project Orion Final Report. Although there are breaks in the numerical sequence, this is the complete set of technical reports issued by the project.

Study on Statistics and Environmental Factors in Health Series

These reports were issued in a long-running series under the auspices of the SIAM Institute for Mathematics and Society and were supported by grants from the US Energy Research and Development Administration, later the Department of Energy, and the Environmental Protection Agency.

This study was undertaken jointly with the Department of Statistics, University of British Columbia, which issued many of the titles in the series.
