Personal profile
Research Interests
My work has been focused on extending modern machine learning techniques to classical statistical problems, in particular to Survival Analysis. To do this, I have worked with kernel methods together with the theory of counting processes to design more robust non-parametric tests that can be applied to the right-censored data framework. As a recent interest I am focused on studying how the techniques I have developed extend to other important statistical problems.
Key Words
