Biography
I am a PhD student in Statistics and Operations Research at STOR-i, Lancaster University. My research interests include statistical modelling, non-linear regression methods and prediction. In my PhD I have been looking into applications within object tracking. To date in my PhD most of my work has been on the analysis of GPS tracking data in oceanography.
My PhD program is a 3+1 year degree, I have completed the MRes part and I am now in the second year of my PhD. Prior to Moving to Lancaster University, I was in University College Dublin studying for a BSc in Mathematics and Statistics. In the last couple of years of my BSc, I started to get really interested in statistics, in particular the predicting/clustering side. Which has led to my current studies.
