About
My research interests include extreme value theory, limit theory under dependence, functional data and spatial data. Currently, my focus is on the last two areas. For functional data, I am considering the estimation of high-dimensional parameters, such as the cross covariance, that characterize dependence between functional variables. I am also working on a book on the foundation of functional data that will likely be published in 2014. For spatial data, I am interested in the inference of spatial processes that are locally stationary, especially in the context of densely observed data.
