Statistical concepts and tools played a key role in such work. As the applications became more sophisticated, elaborate statistical methods were required to tackle the problems. In the last three decades, QI has seen more use of experimental design and analysis, particularly the methodology of robust parameter design. \u003C\/em\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EWu is continuously invited to give lectures at events hosted by some of the most respected organizations in the field.
