We are thrilled to announce *Grace Wahba* is the winner of the
prestigious *2025
International Prize in Statistics
<https://AMSTAT-MS.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT0xMTk0MjUxOCZwPTEmdT0xMTgxNjU4NjI0JmxpPTExNTE0MjM5Nw/index.html>*
for her groundbreaking work on smoothing splines, which has revolutionized
data analysis and machine learning.



The prize recognizes a major achievement by an individual or team in the
statistics field, particularly a seminal contribution to knowledge that led
to practical applications and breakthroughs in other disciplines.



Wahba is an American statistician and retired I. J. Schoenberg-Hilldale
Professor of Statistics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Her
pioneering contributions to nonparametric regression and the development of
algorithms for noisy data laid the foundation for modern machine learning
techniques such as gradient boosting and neural networks. Known as "the
mother of smoothing splines," her work continues to influence fields from
climate science to medical imaging.



A pathfinder who opened doors for future generations, Wahba's legacy
includes mentoring future leaders and receiving honors such as membership
in the National Academy of Sciences. In 2021, the Institute of Mathematical
Statistics established the Grace Wahba Award and Lecture in her honor.



The *International Prize in Statistics
