Abstract
Stephen Fienberg (1942-2016) was a statistician whose career has been an inspiration for the engagement of statistics with social and scientific issues, and it is in this spirit that he helped steer algebraic statistics toward more of a mainstream. Many of his favorite topics in the area are covered in this special issue. We are grateful to all authors for contributing to this volume to honor him and his influence on the field.
During the preparation of this issue, we also learned about the tragic killing of his widow, Joyce Fienberg, in the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. This issue is dedicated to their memory.
Stephen Fienberg（1942-2016）是一位统计学家，他的职业生涯激励了统计学与社会和科学问题的互动，正是本着这种精神，他帮助将代数统计学推向了主流。本期特刊报道了他在该领域最喜欢的许多话题。我们感谢所有为纪念他和他在该领域的影响力而为本卷做出贡献的作者。在本期的准备过程中，我们还了解到了他的遗孀Joyce Fienberg在匹兹堡生命之树犹太教堂不幸遇害的情况。这个问题是专门为他们的记忆。
