Research Interests

I am generally interested in the development of statistical methods motivated by applications to real scientific problems. I have numerous areas of research, including:  computational statistics, statistical inference using Bayesian and non-Bayesian methods in the presence of different kinds of data, competing risks models, reliability and survival analysis and univariate and multivariate (discrete and continuous) distributions.  Currently, I am looking on applying competing risks model and masked data in different fields such as life science and industrial engineering as well as the application of accelerated life testing with competing risks models in life sciences.
