Research

Experience

Virginia Tech, Department of Statistics

Ph.D. research

Sep 2013-Dec 2015

Presented two recurrent-event change-point models to detect the time when

crash and near-crash risks decreased significantly for novice teenage drivers

by frequentist approach.

Detected change-points in driving risk allowing for varying change-points

among subjects by hierarchical Bayesian finite mixture model.

Clustered drivers by a non-parametric Bayesian approach under Dirichlet

process mixture models.
