Abstract:

We are developing a broad array of novel Bayesian non and semiparametric frameworks for analyzing complex sequential data sets based on first and higher order Markovian dynamic. These methods help answer important scientific queries arising in a diverse field of applications. The methods have appealing theoretical properties and practical advantages, eliminate many limitations of previously existing methods and are of very broad utility with applications not limited to motivating examples. Our research also paves the way to advanced automated methods for many other sophisticated dynamical systems that can accommodate many different data types.
