My research is focused on a relatively new branch of statistics called Functional Data Analysis (FDA). FDA emerged from the availability of function-valued data and the need to analyze such data appropriately. Like classical multivariate data, functional data can occur as cross-sectional, autocorrelated or spatially correlated data, but the structure of functional data is fundamentally different from that of classical multivariate data. This allows for some unique possibilities, such as the statistical analysis of derivatives or differential equations. There are, however, also some challenging properties such as the high dimensionality of the data. A particular focus of my research is the relevant practical situation in which we do not directly observe the functions, but only their noisy discretization points. These situations typically involve the use of nonparametric estimation procedures.
My future research plans focus on reconstructing partially observed functional data. This line of research has important connections to panel data analysis where missing data is a challenging and practically relevant problem. Another project is centered around the very recent FDA literature that consider local-specific points within the functional data that have particular influence on the response variable.
