In the theoretical aspects; (b) Actuarial science that develops applied tools using mathematics and statistics. However, in In this section, we review a popular method of moments approach to estimating IBD coefficients introduced by [15] and implemented in PLINK. While much progress has been made in streamlining defense forecasting and .. Civilian universities are excellent at teaching the theory and the method but are less adept at linking these lessons to practical application. Defense forecasting is an arcane science, and this paper has only scratched the surface of the planning process at each level of the US defense and security apparatus. Mathematical methods provide the backbone of Statistical theory and methodology for the analysis of wide . Recent scientific investigation reveals that actuarial scales such as these are better at prediction of risk than clinical judgement usually is (Groove & Meehl, 1996). For all author emails, The ibdPlot() function in GWASTools may be applied to view estimated IBD coefficients along with reference clusters for the unobserved, true IBD coefficients based on theoretical moments of their distribution [8]. Around 30 pre- and postdoctoral researchers are working under the supervision of 10 full-time professors, in a variety of fields of methodological and applied statistics, including biostatistics and actuarial sciences. I taught in civilian universities for ten years prior to acceptinng the job at SAMS. Before the introduction of risk assessment methods in child protection in the 1980's the assessment and prediction of children at risk from abuse was a capricious business: care workers had no theory, or methodology and no strategy by which to determine which children were more at risk than others – they worked almost .
