岳牧博士｜新加坡南洋理工大学｜数理科学学院讲师

I am a statistician and Lecturer in the Division of Mathematical Sciences at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. My research focuses on statistical machine learning and high-dimensional data analysis, particularly sparse modelling, boosting, variable selection, and statistical inference for complex and structured data.

My work combines methodological development with interdisciplinary applications in public health, environmental sustainability, economics, and financial analytics. I am the Principal Investigator of an MOE Academic Research Fund (AcRF) Tier 1 research project.

About

I received my PhD in Statistics from the National University of Singapore (NUS) and my BSc (Hons) in Mathematics and Economics, with First Class Honours, from Nanyang Technological University (NTU).

Prior to joining NTU, I was a Lecturer in the Engineering Systems and Design Pillar at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) from 2020 to 2023. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Biostatistics and Modelling at the Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health, NUS, while also teaching probability and statistics in the NUS Department of Economics.
