معرفی
Hassan Maatouk is a Lecturer at the University of Perpignan, affiliated with the UFR SEE (Science, Economics, and Engineering) faculty, specifically within the MATH-INFO Department. He is a member of the LAMPS (Multidisciplinary Modeling and Simulation Laboratory) where he conducts research in applied mathematics and statistics.
His primary research interests include:
- Data Science and Statistical Learning
- Nonparametric and Bayesian Statistics
- High-dimensional Statistical Modeling
- Computational Statistics and Gaussian Processes
- MCMC Methods and Uncertainty Quantification
Dr. Maatouk's research focuses on non-parametric statistics and high-dimensional modeling with structured constraints such as monotonicity, bounds, and convexity. His work aims to improve prediction models based on Gaussian processes and quantify uncertainties in simulations, with applications spanning econometrics, microbiology, chemistry, and industrial contexts. His recent publications demonstrate a strong emphasis on constrained Gaussian processes, truncated multivariate normal distributions, and scalable Bayesian methods for large datasets, with increasing citation impact (65 citations in 2025 alone).
His scholarly impact is evidenced by 362 total citations and an h-index of 8. His most influential works include 'Gaussian process emulators for computer experiments with inequality constraints' (123 citations) and 'Kriging of financial term-structures' (70 citations).
Dr. Maatouk collaborates with researchers across France including Xavier Bay from École des Mines de Saint-Étienne, Areski Cousin from the University of Strasbourg, and Yann Richet from IRSN. His interdisciplinary approach extends to materials science as shown by his co-authored work on ZnO nanoparticles' antibacterial properties.
