Postdoc -- Dpt of Statistics -- Warwick University (UK) -- Dimension Supercharged Projective Sampling

[Alexandre Thiery]

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research fellow position to work on the project “Dimension Supercharged Projective Sampling” funded by The Royal Society. 

The post-holder will develop, analyse, optimise and implement novel computational MCMC and adaptive MCMC methodology targeting high dimensional spaces. 

The project will be led by Dr Krzysztof Latuszynski. Collaborators on the project will be Professor Gareth Roberts (University of Warwick) and Dr Alexandre Thiery (National University of Singapore). 

The post-holder will become part of the world-renowned Department of Statistics at the University of Warwick, in particular of its world-leading group in computational statistics, 

and will take active part in workshops, seminars and reading groups in this research area. 

You should hold a PhD, together with having strong background in computational statistics that covers at least two of the following fields: 

MCMC, diffusion processes, numerical stability of algorithms, preparation and publication of computer code for statistical methodology. 

You are welcome to address informal enquiries directly to Dr Krzysztof Latuszynski (K.G.Lat...@warwick.ac.uk)
