Research | Current
My primary research goals are directed toward understanding statistical inference and related computations in the Bayesian framework.
My research interests include;
- Bayesian statsitics
- Monte Carlo methods
- Mixtures
- Inference using approixmations due to expensive posteiror distribuitons
- Inverse problem
- Application of Bayesian inference - I have worked on problems in food science, sport science and image detection.
Please see Google scholar for my publications.
