Research profile

 Initially my research was related to probability theory in functional spaces and its applications to random (fuzzy) sets. After my Ph.D. I moved to methodological statistics. I combined later such research with applied data analysis and computational statistics. My main research line is in the area of statistics for expert assessments and imprecise data represented through (fuzzy) sets. Fuzzy data are formally elements of a cone of a Hilbert space, which connects my expertise with Hilbert-valued random elements. Other lines of research includes flood risk, non-parametric methods and bootstrapping, intelligent data analysis and matrix computations for the estimation of linear models.

Publications:

  • 76 publications indexed in the Web of Science. They include publications in probability theory (e.g. Probability Theory and Related Fields, Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society), methodological statistics (e.g. Statistica Sinica, Scandinavian Journal of Statistics), data analysis (e.g. Computational Statistics and Data Analysis, Advances in Data Analysis and Classification), ICT (e.g., Information Science, International Journal of Approximate Reasoning), econometric and environmental applications (e.g., Natural Hazards, Ecological Indicators).

  • 3 books (in Spanish).
