Hello! My name is Quan Vu, and I am a Lecturer in Statistical Data Science at the University of Sydney. Before joining USYD, I did my postdoc at the Australian National University. I received my PhD from the University of Wollongong.
My research focuses on developing statistical methods for complex spatial and spatio-temporal data, with an emphasis on addressing environmental and ecological problems. I specialize in the generalized linear mixed model framework, using Gaussian processes, basis function models, and deep learning models for spatial/spatio-temporal regression, prediction, and emulation.Â
I welcome opportunities to collaborate with both statisticians and domain experts to translate innovative statistical tools into impactful real-world solutions.
