Fisher gave up being a mathematics teacher in 1919 to work at the Rothamsted Agricultural Experiment Station where he worked as a biologist and made many contributions to both statistics and genetics. He had a long dispute with Pearson and he turned down a post under him, choosing to go to Rothamsted instead. There he studied the design of experiments by introducing the concept of randomisation and the analysis of variance, procedures now used throughout the world. In 1921 he introduced the concept of likelihood. The likelihood of a parameter is proportional to the probability of the data and it gives a function which usually has a single maximum value, which he called the maximum likelihood.

Fisher is considered the founder of modern statistics because of his many important contributions to that field. In 1921, he introduced the concept of likelihood and the maximum likelihood estimator. He also developed methods suitable for small samples, like those of Gosset, discovered of the precise distributions of many sample statistics, invented of analysis of variance, and studied hypothesis testing. In 1922 he gave a new definition of statistics. Its purpose was the reduction of data and he identified 3 fundamental problems: specification of the kind of population that the data came from, parameter estimation, and distributional problems.

History of Statistics History has shaped our past; history will shape our future. Newton once said that he owned his success to his standing on the shoulders of scientific giants. History of statistics provides a ladder by which young statisticians climb to the shoulders of great statisticians. In the uneasy flow of human wisdom, statisticians have developped stochastic models of the ideal probability space, have built different inference bridges for crossing the gap between the data space and the probability space. To trace the development of these different models and of these inference methodologies is to inquire into the fasicnating intellectual tradition of statisticians and to test the null that staticians, together with scientists and engineers from other fields, have built the edifice of our scientific and social worlds.

20. Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher Was Born February 17, 1890 In East Finchley, London To sir ronald Aylmer fisher was born February 17, 1890 in East Finchley, Londonto a fine arts auctioneer named George fisher and Katie (Heath). http://www.mrs.umn.edu/~sungurea/introstat/history/w98/RAFisher.html

Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher was born February 17, 1890 in East Finchley, London to a fine arts auctioneer named George Fisher and Katie (Heath). None of his ancestors showed any strong mathematical inclinations, with the small exception of his uncle who graduated as a Wrangler from Cambridge. As a child, Fisher’s eyesight was already poor and this inhibited his private reading. In 1904, when he was 14 years old, his mother died, and that same year he received a scholarship in mathematics to Harrow. Because of his eyesight, he received tutoring in math under G. H. P. Mayo. In 1909 he won a scholarship in mathematics to Cambridge University and graduated in 1912 with a B. A. in Astronomy. He was awarded a studentship for one year and studied theory of errors under F. J. M. Stratton and also more astronomy and quantum physics under J. Jeans. In April of 1912, Fisher published his first paper introducing what would later become known as the method of maximum likelihood. The remainder of that summer, Fisher took up correspondence with W. S. Gosset ("Student") in relation to a part of his equation for standard deviation. During this correspondence, he ended up making the distinction between sample and population means. In the theoretical or pure statistics, large samples, sometimes even infinite (using ideal situations), were taken from the population. Almost the entire population itself was taken as the ideal sample, making little error, but making applying those techniques impractical. R. A. Fisher was interested in the practical applications of statistics, dealing with small quantities in a sample, not infinitely large ones.
