Widespread application of modern machine learning has increased the need for robust statistical algorithms. One fundamental geometric quantity in robust statistics is known as a data depth, which generalizes the notion of quantiles and medians to multiple dimensions. This talk will discuss recent work (in collaboration with Martin Molina-Fructuo...

This talk will describe a new approach for optimizing dynamic treatment regimes that bridges the gap between Bayesian inference and Q-learning. The proposed approach fits a series of Bayesian regression models, one for each stage, in reverse sequential order. Each model regresses the remaining payoff assuming optimal actions are taken at subsequ...

Boolean networks are an important class of computational models for molecular interaction networks. Boolean canalization, a type of hierarchical clustering of the inputs of a Boolean function, has been extensively studied in the context of network modeling where each layer of canalization adds a degree of stability in the dynamics of the network...

Recently a new concept of the so called forward utility has been proposed, studied and used in the context of portfolio optimization. We recall the fundamental results of this approach in the case when the forward utility is monotone. Then we construct an analogous multi-period mean-variance optimization framework, derive the optimal portfolios ...

The first completely sequenced genome, the virus Lambda at 50,000 nucleotides, was sequenced via the shotgun method by Sanger and coworkers at Cambridge in 1981. The shotgun method consists of randomly sampling and determining 500-700 nucleotide 'reads' and then assembling them to reconstruct the sampled sequence. It was long believed that this ...
