Welcome to my site!
My name is Constandina Koki. I am a post-doctoral research associate at Mathematics Institute, University of Warwick, under the supervision of prof. Nigel Burroughs. I hold a PhD in Bayesian Statistics from the Athens University of Economics and Business, Greece, and a MSc in Statistics and Operations Research and a BSc in Mathematics both from the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece.
See my full Curriculum Vitae.
Research Interests
Bayesian Statistics: bayesian modeling, forecasting, data augmentation methods, variable selection, time series analysis, Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods, machine learning
Cryptocurrencies: price formation, time series analysis and forecasting
