Hirotugu Akaike was a Japanese statistician. In the early 1970s, he formulated the Akaike information criterion (AIC). AIC is now widely used for model selection, which is commonly the most difficult aspect of statistical inference; additionally, AIC is the basis of a paradigm for the foundations of statistics. Akaike also made major contributions to the study of time series. In addition, he had a large role in the general development of statistics in Japan.
Reading Akaike against the global hubs: Tokyo (~841 km), Singapore (~4,560 km), Dubai (~7,212 km) are the close ones, with São Paulo (~18,859 km) sitting on the opposite side of the planet — a good gut check when judging logistics windows.
Akaike sits inside Japon — the Eastern Asia subregion, capital Tokyo, languages Japanese, currency JPY (¥).
