Contents & Purposes Nowadays, large complex data such as high-dimensional data and big data appear in many areas of science. There has been an explosive increase in the number of statistical analysis cases related to large complex data. Statistical methodologies for analyzing large complex data have been changing dramatically. In this workshop, we would like you to bring research findings of your field and have the opportunity to exchange ideas, share knowledge and experience. Our purpose is to have a fruitful opportunity to discuss from a broad point of view. In addition, we will invite distinguished researchers and hold keynote sessions and special invited sessions.

Title Point Estimation Methods for a Negative Exponential Location:
Illustrations with Infant Mortality and Bone Marrow Data
Abstract   We introduce Stein-type two-stage, modified two-stage, and purely sequential strategies to estimate an unknown location parameter of a negative exponential distribution (with an unknown scale parameter) under a newly defined and modified Linex loss function. We aim at controlling the associated risk function per unit cost (RPUC) by bounding it from above with a positive number ω that is fixed in advance. We emphasize both asymptotic first-order and second-order properties for the modified two-stage and purely sequential estimation strategies.
  In developing asymptotic second-order properties for the modified two-stage and purely sequential methodologies, we heavily rely upon basic ideas rooted in Mukhopadhyay and Duggan (1997) and nonlinear renewal theory from Lai and Siegmund (1977, 1979), Woodroofe (1977), and Ghosh et al. (1997), respectively.
  Then, we take to extensive data analysis carried out via simulations when requisite sample sizes may range from small to moderate to large. We find that the Stein-type two-stage estimation methodology oversamples significantly and yet the achieved risk may not be close to ω. On the other hand, both modified two-stage and purely sequential estimation strategies perform remarkably well.
  Next, we will validate the major theoretical first-order and second-order properties through simulated data. The methodologies will also be illustrated using real datasets from health studies, namely, infant mortality data and bone marrow data.
