Welcome
Duy Ngo
Ph.D. Student, Department of Statistics
University of California, Irvine.
My name is Duy Ngo. I am a fourth year student in the UC Irvine Statistics Ph.D. program, advised by Dr. Hernando Ombao. I joined UC Irvine in 2013 after graduating from CSU Fullerton with a bachelor degree in mathematics.
My current research interests include Bayesian analysis, clustering, time series, spectral analysis, and functional data analysis. I am currently working on hierarchical clustering and developing an exploratory analysis tool for EEG data.
Research
In CSU Fullerton, my research focused on analysis of neuronal spiking rates. After I joined UC Irvine, I have been studing functional boxplots method on EEG data. This method provides a tool for exploratory analysis a high dimensional data like EEG data.
Teaching
I have been assigned as TA for STATS 7 this quarter (Winter 2015). This course gives an introduction of basic inferential statistics including confidence intervals and hypothesis testing on means and proportions, t-distribution, Chi Square, regression and correlation, and F-distribution.
Space Time
Space time meeting is a regular meeting at each quarter. The purpose of this ordinary meeting is to collaborate with scientists on study analysis of space-time data, such as neuroscience, neurology, psychiatry, sociology and epidemiology. The meeting also helps undergraduate and graduate students conduct a research including discussing papers, invesstigating model formulation and presenting results.
Office hours Statistics Course (Spring 2018)
Monday 2:00pm - 5:00pm, Room # 2032, Bren Hall building, or by appointment.
