Biography

I am a mathematician and computational statistician whose research interests broadly lie in the fields of statistical computing, statistical learning of partially-observed stochastic processes, stochastic PDEs for uncertainty quantification and Bayesian nonparametrics. Other areas of interest include spatial-temporal statistical modeling, extreme value analysis and Bayesian variable selection. Recently, I have developed an interest in physics-informed statistical learning for bridging spatial-temporal scales of physical phenomena. Applications of my work include in bioinformatics, cyber-security, climatology (especially within the atmospheric sciences) and the social sciences.
