Bui Ngoc Mai

Dr. Bui Ngoc Mai is a Lecturer in the Faculty of Business at British University Vietnam, where she has worked since 2023. Her academic journey includes a PhD and postdoctoral research at University College London (UCL), focusing on inference on Riemannian manifolds and applications in cancer early detection.

• PhD in Mathematics and Statistical Science (2017–2022), UCL
• MSc in Mathematics and Statistical Science (2013–2017), UCL
• A-levels (2011–2013), Chichester College, UK

Mai’s research bridges theoretical and applied domains, emphasizing Riemannian geometry, stochastic processes, and multi-state statistical models. Her work explores regression and SDEs on Lie groups, with applications in early cancer detection and financial data analysis.

Recent publications highlight her focus on covariance matrix modeling, partially observed diffusions, and Riemannian Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes. These studies integrate geometric statistics with biomedical and financial applications, reflecting her interdisciplinary approach.
