Forschungsinteressen

Meine mathematische Forschung konzentriert sich auf die Entwicklung von Modellen und Schätz- und Testmethoden für nichtlineare Zeitreihen, räumliche Daten und stochastische Prozesse aus den Bereichen Finanzen, Risikomanagement, Materialwissenschaften und biomedizinische Datenanalyse. Die Hauptthemen sind

  • lokale Glättungsverfahren, z.B. Kernel-Schätzungen
  • Wavelet-basierte Funktionsschätzungen
  • Siebschätzungen, z.B. neuronale Netze oder Regressionsbäume
  • Funktionsdatenanalyse für Zeitreihen
  • Resampling-Methoden, hauptsächlich Bootstrap-Varianten, zur Konfidenzbeurteilung der statistischen Inferenz.


Meine angewandte Forschung am Fraunhofer ITWM befasst sich mit der Anwendung nichtparametrischer Statistik und maschinellem Lernen auf Probleme, bei denen generische maschinelle Lernmethoden aufgrund fehlender Daten und fehlender technischer Kenntnisse über die beteiligten Prozesse versagen.
