Research
- Main research interests:
- Computational statistics, including Markov chain Monte Carlo.
- Spatial statistics.
- Bayesian modelling and inference.
- Statistical modelling for petroleum reservoir evaluation.
- External projects: Participate in the projects
- Present PhD-students: Håkon Toftaker, Petter Arnesen.
- Former PhD-students: Hugo Lewi
Hammer (2008), Haakon Michael

Software
- XDE:
a Bayesian hierarchical model for cross-study analysis of differential gene expression.
It is using MCMC for a multi-level model for cross-study detection of differential
gene expression.
- XPN:A cross-platform normalization method for combining gene expression data from different studies.
- Software for Bayesian
prediction tree modelling, using MCMC for exploring spaces
of Bayesian classification and regression tree models.
