معرفی
Dr. Kirstin Strokorb (she/her) is a Senior Lecturer and Deputy Director of Postgraduate Research at the School of Mathematics, Cardiff University. Her research focuses on multivariate, spatial, and temporal dependence phenomena in extreme value theory, a field critical for assessing rare hazardous events in data-driven risk modeling. She contributes to interdisciplinary research through editorial roles (Extremes, Stochastic Models) and leadership in the One World Extremes seminar and Statistics seminar series.
- Education: PhD in Mathematics (University of Göttingen, summa cum laude, 2013), Diploma in Pure Mathematics (University of Göttingen, 2010), Exchange student at Warwick University (2006/2007).
Research Interests include extreme value theory, stochastic processes, and graphical models. She develops tools for spatio-temporal risk assessment and forecast evaluation, with applications in finance, insurance, and environmental engineering. Her work addresses challenges in max-stable processes, stochastic orderings, and realisability problems.
Recent article trends emphasize graphical models for extremes, simulation algorithms, and stochastic ordering. She explores high-dimensional extremes and tail correlation functions, contributing to spatial and temporal modeling and conditional independence frameworks.
