I am a postdoctoral researcher in Statistics and Data Science within the Methods for Big Data research group at the Scientific Computing Center of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.
I am interested in Bayesian statistics for the analysis of high-dimensional data, focusing on both theoretical and computational aspects, and I am interested in experiencing interesting applications. My current work focuses on Bayesian inference for variable selection in complex settings and recent challenges in spatio-temporal data analysis.
Keywords: Bayesian inference, change-point detection, computational methods, dependent data, high-dimensional statistics, spatial statistics, time series models, varying coefficients regression, variable selection, variational inference.
FAQ: Why whitenoise? The nickname whitenoise joins my surname (Bianco = White in Italian) and the white noise as a random process!
