Statistical theory

We work on probabilistic statistical models for analyzing multivariate data. This is not only important for the neuroscientific applications, but also leads to general-purpose statistical models.

A fundamental mathematical method that we use is independent component analysis together with some of its extensions. A particularly important project is on causal analysis.

Research projects: FastICA [1], ICASSO [2], NMFsc [3], LiNGAM (causal analysis) [4], Score matching [5]
