Title: Examples of Industrial Problems Leading to Statistical Research
Abstract: Many of the problems that are faced in industry can be solved with methods that have already been developed. Occasionally there are new problems that are faced that require original research. For a research statistician working in industry, these types of problems are a joy to encounter. In this talk I will discuss several examples of problems faced at Procter & Gamble that have led to subsequent statistical research.
