Amiryousefi, Ali

Introduction

I started my Master Degree in Bayesian Statistics and Decision Analysis (EuroBayes) in Sep, 2009 in University of Helsinki. Soon after my enrollment, I joined National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) and started my research in the department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Control. I hold my Bachelor degree in Statistics from University of Isfahan, with thesis topic in Markov chains.

Research Interests

I am interested in Bayesian theory and possible problems that can be tackled by this approach, but in particular my core interests are in:

-Bayesian data analysis
 -Markovian modeling and statistical learning
 -Probability logic
