Anthony Christopher Davison

Expertise Statistical theory and methods.Applications, particularly to environmental and biological data. Mission The goal of my academic work is to further the development of statistical science through the development and application of new approaches to data analysis and through collaborations both within and outwith the EPFL. Anthony Davison has published on a wide range of topics in statistical theory and methods, and on environmental, biological and financial applications. His main research interests are statistics of extremes, likelihood asymptotics, bootstrap and other resampling methods, and statistical modelling, with a current particular focus on the first of these.
