Research Interests
Statistical inference of stochastic processes embedded within stochastically evolving networks. Examples include statistical decision problems in population genetics, phylogenetics, ecological genetics, and set-valued statistics.

Current Projects
Ongoing projects are grouped into the following two seemingly unrelated areas.![]() |
Mathematical and Statistical Genetics
- Algebraic statistics of combinatorial stochastic processes in population genetics
- Multi-resolution lumped n-coalescents and ancestral recombination graphs in population genetics
- Constructions of spatial coagulation-fragmentation processes
- Approximate sufficiency via n-coalescent experiment graphs in population genetics
- LCE: A C++ class library for lumped coalescent experiments in population genetics
Set-valued Statistical Algorithms
- Extending integer, real and interval arithmetic to multi-dimensional metric data structures
- Exact trans-dimensional samplers
- Non-parametric set-valued statistics for classifiers of spherically homeomorphic 3D shapes
- Non-parametric high-dimensional density estimators and set-valued plug-in estimators for massive data
- Rigorous prameter estimation in non-linear systems with machine-representable sub-sigma algebras -- a collaboration between Laboratory for Mathematical Statistical Experiments and Computer-Aided Proofs in Analysis, a research group in the Department of Mathematics, Uppsala University, Sweden.
- MRS: A C++ class library for statistical set processing in computational statistics
