About the journal
Statistics and Computing is a quarterly refereed journal which publishes papers covering the range of the interface between statistical and computer science. In particular, it addresses the use of statistical concepts in computer science and the use of computers in data analysis. Specific topics which are covered include: techniques for evaluating analytically intractable problems such as high-dimensional multivariate integrals, search and optimization methods, computer-intensive (resampling) methods, simulation and Monte Carlo, graphics, computer environments, reliability of hardware, statistical approaches to software errors, information retrieval, statistics of databases and database technology, huge data sets and data mining, computer algebra, graphical models, image processing, tomography, genetic algorithms, neural networks, reviews of programs, statistical languages, and packages, macros and algorithms. In addition, the journal contains original research reports, authoritative review papers, discussed papers, and occasional special issues on particular topics or carrying proceedings of relevant conferences. Statistics and Computing also publishes book review and software review sections.
Instructions to Authors
PROCESS FOR SUBMISSION
Authors should submit five hard copies of their final manuscript to:
Ms. Michelle Misner STATISTICS AND COMPUTING Editorial Office Kluwer Academic Publishers 101 Philip Drive Norwell, MA 02061 U.S.A. Tel: 781-871-6600 Fax: 781-878-0449 E-mail: Michelle.Misner@wkap.com
For prompt attention, all correspondence can be directed to this address.
Enclose with each manuscript, on a separate page, from five to ten index terms (key phrases).
Enclose originals for the illustrations (see STYLE FOR ILLUSTRATIONS section below). Alternatively, good quality copies may be sent initially, with the originals ready to be sent immediately upon acceptance of paper.
Enclose a separate page giving your complete preferred mailing address (including street and bldg. nos.) for correspondence and return of proofs. Please be sure to include a telephone number, fax number and e-mail address.
The refereeing is done by anonymous reviewers.
All papers should be written in English.
STYLE FOR MANUSCRIPT
Typeset, double or 1 1/2 space; use one side of sheet only (laser printed, typewritten and good quality duplication acceptable). Our LaTeX style file offers a draft mode for this purpose.
Provide an informative 100 to 250-word abstract at the head of the manuscript. The abstracts are printed with the articles.
Provide a separate double-spaced sheet listing all footnotes, beginning with "Affiliation of author" and continuing with numbered references. Acknowledgement of financial support may be given if appropriate.
References should appear in a separate bibliography at the end of the paper in alphabetical order with items referred to in the text by author and date of publication in parentheses, e.g. (Marr 1982). References should be complete, in the following style:
Style for papers: Authors, last names followed by first initials, year of publication, title, volume, inclusive page numbers.
Style for books: Authors, year of publication, title, publisher and location, chapter and page numbers (if desired).
Examples as follows: (Book) Marr D. 1992, Vision, A Computational Investigation into the Human Representation & Processing of Visual Information, San Francisco, Freeman.
(Journal Article) Rosenfeld A., and Thurston M. 1971. Edge and curve detection for visual scene analysis, IEEE Trans. Comput. C.-20: 562-569.
(Conference Proceedings) Witkin A. 1983. Scales space filtering. Proc. Int. Joint Conf. Artif. Intell., Karlsruhe, West Germany, pp. 1019-1021.
(Lab. memo.) Yuille, A. L. and Poggio T. 1983. Scaling theorems for zero crossings. M.I.T. Artif. Intell. Lab., Mass. Inst. Tech., Cambridge, MA, A. I. Memo. 722.
Provide a separate sheet listing all figure captions, in proper style for the typesetter, e.g., "Fig. 3. Examples of the zero crossings of the second derivative of the (a) Gaussion and (b) sine filter for the same input function."

STYLE FOR ILLUSTRATIONS
Originals for illustrations should be sharp, noise-free, and of good contrast. We regret that we cannot provide drafting or art service. All original illustrations should be placed on separate pages following the text, not within the manuscript text.
Line drawings should be in laser printer output or in India ink on paper, or board. Use 8 1/2 by 11-inch size sheets if possible, to simplify handling of the manuscript.
Each figure should be mentioned in the text and numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals. Specify the desired location of each figure in the text, but place the figure itself on a separate page following the text.
Number each table consecutively using Arabic numerals. Please label any material that can be typeset as a table, reserving the term "figure" for material that has been drawn. Specify the desired location of each table in the text, but place the table itself on a separate page following the text. Type a brief title above each table.
All lettering should be large enough to permit legible reduction.
Photographs should be glossy prints, of good contrast and gradation, and any reasonable size.
Number each original on the back or at the bottom of the front.
Provide a separate sheet listing the captions for all figures.
PROOFING
Page proofs for articles to be included in a journal issue will be sent to the contact author for proofing, unless otherwise informed. The proofread copy should be received back by the Publisher within 72 hours.
COPYRIGHT
Upon acceptance of an article, authors will be required to sign a copyright form transferring the copyright from the authors or their employers to the Publisher.
REPRINTS
Each group of authors will be entitled to 50 free reprints of their paper. Offprints may be ordered on a form that accompanies the proofs. There are no page charges.
