D.Sc. in Tech., Adjunct professor (dosentti)
I work with the post doctoral researcher funding of
Academy of Finland in the Fisheries and Environmental
Management Group (FEM) at
University of Helsinki. My research interests include
- Bayesian modelling and decision analysis
- Gaussian
processes
- computational statistics and machine learning
- spatial and spatio-temporal statistics
- environmental management problems including, for example,
species distribution modeling, uncertainty assessment of
environmental simulators and population dynamics modeling.
I have also profile in Google Scholar and
