Statistical Modeling

Statisticians within the Vehicle Safety Analytics, Vehicle Systems and Control, and the Biosciences Groups design statistical methods for the analysis of transportation-related data and provide consulting services covering a broad range of quantitative research. Some areas of specialty are listed below:

Poisson/negative binomial regression models for handling extra variability often encountered in observational studies
Statistical methods for rates
Methods for handling missing exposure data
Development of Bayesian hierarchical models based on output from Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation
Analysis of categorical and clustered categorical data typically found in transportation-related databases
Statistical modeling of accident data and travel-behavior survey data arising from complex sample surveys that include clustering, stratification, and weights
