Tevfik Aktekin

Tevfik Aktekin is a Professor in the Department of Decision Sciences at the Paul College of Business and Economics, University of New Hampshire. His research focuses on Bayesian inference and stochastic modeling in service systems and business analytics.

• Education: Ph.D. in Decision Sciences (George Washington University), M.B.A. in Management Decision Making (George Washington University), B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (Yildiz Technical University).

His work applies Bayesian state-space models to multivariate count data, with applications in call center staffing, product modification cycles, and public health analysis. He has published in journals like Annals of Applied Statistics, Bayesian Analysis, and European Journal of Operational Research.

The 15 most recent articles highlight trends in sequential Bayesian learning for dynamic systems (e.g., bike-sharing, web traffic), time series of non-Gaussian data, and stochastic optimization under uncertainty. These works bridge statistical theory with practical applications in business and health.
