Matthias Herp
Statistics and Bio-Informatics PhD student
In the Programme Data Science
Research
I work in a collaboration between the chair of statistics with
Prof. Dr. Thomas Kneib
and the department of medical bioinformatics with
Prof. Dr. Michael Altenbuchinger .
In my Phd, I focuses on developing nonparametric graphical methods to model complex dependency structures in high dimensional data using transformation models.
Our goal is to provide methods for the analysis of omics data in bioinformatics.
