This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides USD 125,000 in funding to the University of California, Davis to advance the field of Generalized Fiducial Inference (GFI). The key objectives are to extend GFI methods to causal inference models, particularly instrumental variable models, and redefine GFI through normalizing flows to manage computational complexity in non-analytic scenarios. The project will apply these methodological innovations to address pressing real-world problems in forensic science, social network learning, and sports analytics. This collaborative research aims to enhance decision-making processes across various fields by developing innovative statistical methods that can quantify uncertainty without requiring subjective assumptions. The award also provides valuable research training opportunities for graduate students in STEM disciplines, contributing to national goals of promoting scientific advancement, health, prosperity, and welfare.
