Nussbaum Ed Koch, the former three-term mayor who would stand at street corners and ask in his Aclassic Bronx accent, “How’m I doin’?” I wonder if any of today’s politicians would be so bold as to ask that. But here, in my last President’s Corner, I want to answer how we are doing. I suggested three initiatives. The communica- tions initiative centered on my oft-repeated mantra, “It’s not what we said, it’s not what they heard, it’s what they say they heard.” We teamed up with the Stats + Stories group at Miami University. Started in 2013, this is a collaboration between statisticians and journalists producing podcasts that give the sta- tistics behind the stories and the stories behind the statistics. With the new ASA assistance, a quality solution for having guests participate remotely via Skype now exists. Further, the programming has been augmented with five-minute episodes called Stats + [short] Stories.

When assessing the feasibility of these predictions, it is critical to quantify uncertainties associated with the models, inputs to the models, and data used to calibrate the models. The synthesis of statistical and mathematical techniques, which can be used to quantify input and response uncertainties for simulation codes that can take hours to days to run, comprises the evolving field of uncertainty quantification. The use of data, to improve the predictive accuracy of models, is central to uncertainty quantification so we will begin by providing an overview of how Bayesian techniques can be used to construct distributions for Summer 2015 Roundtable Agenda 1 model inputs.
