Statistical Laboratory, |
I am a second year PhD student at the Statistical Laboratory, which is part of the Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics at the University of Cambridge. I am also currently the treasurer of Hughes Hall MCR. My PhD supervisor is Dr. Richard Samworth.
My current research interests include shape-constrained density estimation, time series analysis and statistical computing.
Here is a list of my publications and preprints:
- Chen, Y. (2011), Semiparametric time series models with log-concave innovations. Submitted. (.pdf, 695K)
- Chen, Y. and Samworth, R. J. (2011), Smoothed log-concave maximum likelihood estimation with applications. Submitted. (.pdf, 1M)
- Chen, Y. (2010), Discussion of Maximum likelihood estimation of a multidimensional log-concave density by Cule, Samworth and Stewart, J. Roy. Statist. Soc., Ser. B, 72, 590-593. (.pdf, 97K)

In Lent 2011-2012, I am supervising Part IB Statistics. Previously, I have supervised the Part II courses Principles of Statistics, Statistical Modelling and Part III course Applied Statistics.
