Summary of Research:
The problem of performing online inference when observations arrive
sequentially in time is well known in the statistical and engineering
communities. Statisticians have come up with several
state-of-the-art techniques to make inferences to online problems,
while keeping a balance between accuracy and speed. My current
research focuses on developing a new technique that would be able to
cater for high dimensionality and speed at the same time.
I am trying to develop a functional approximation to prediction of
general state space models, where the latent variable can be high
dimensional and parameters can be assumed to be unknown. I plan
to extend this is a spatial setting in the future.
General interests: I have a strong interest in Bayesian
Statistics and its applications. I am also particulary interested
in classical Time Series and regression, both linear and
non-linear. State-Space modelling is my current area of
interest.
