RESEARCH INTERESTS
I am mainly interested in the development of new methodologies to analyze high dimensionaldata. In particular, I have recently worked on:
- Extension of finite mixture models
- Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and mixture of SEM
- Simultaneous clustering and dimensionality reduction
- Regression models in high dimensional data
- Biclustering, that is simultaneous clustering of units and variables
- Repeated measurements and mixed models
- CGH array Analysis: normalization and smoothing methods
- Clustering on family data (dependent data)
- Applications: customer satisfaction, microarray, forest, well-being, endophenotypes detection in Longevity study
