Research Advisor: Dr. David Scott
Research Experience:
My dissertation topic is Robust Empirical Likelihood. Robust Empirical Likelihood employs the empirical likelihood method to construct robust confidence intervals for non-robust statistics. Robust Empirical Likelihood uses sensitivity analysis to maximize a robust version of the empirical likelihood function. This allows data analysts to accurately estimate parameters despite any potential contamination.
