PhD position in spatio-temporal statistics at Department of Mathematical Sciences

Piracy is a prominent and increasing concern for international shipping. To mitigate risk and prevent attacks it is pertinent to understand the spatial and temporal patterns of piracy. The PhD project, financed by the Orient Fond, aims at developing spatio-temporal statistical models for forecasting occurrences of pirate attacks in space and time. The project will offer rich opportunities for both theoretical as well as applied research in topics such as space-time counting processes, space-time asymptotic statistics, and computational statistics.
