This volume contains nineteen research papers belonging to the
areas of computational statistics, data mining, and their applications. Those papers, all written specifically for this volume, are their authors’ contributions to honour and celebrate Professor Jacek Koronacki on the occcasion of his 70th birthday. The
book’s related and often interconnected topics, represent Jacek Koronacki’s research interests and their evolution. They also clearly indicate how close the areas of computational statistics and data mining are.
