Department of Mathematics, The University of Tennessee

I am currently a Phd student in the Department of Mathematics at University of Tennessee. My advisor is Dr.Maroulas.

My research lies in the area of computational statistics and probability. Especially, I am interested in nonlinear Bayesian filtering, statistical learning and its applications. Presently, I'm working on the development of particle filter algorithms and its applications in Multi-target tracking problem.
