Innovations in research methodology and empirical modelling
Most of my research is about multivariate models with dependent systems of equations. These are often present in analyses when there is a cross-sectional and a time dimension. It focuses on data insufficiencies such as missing data, which induce non-identifiability issues.
My methodological research should be helpful for researchers and practitioners in many disciplines as it provides alternative approaches to data analysis. My applications to economic, business, engineering and medical data use flexible statistical models with the aim at generating new insights that go beyond what is normally done.
