معرفی
Rasmus Waagepetersen is a Professor in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Aalborg University, affiliated with The Faculty of Engineering and Science. His research focuses on spatial statistics, quantitative genetics, and statistical methodology for spatial point processes. He leads and participates in interdisciplinary projects such as urbanLab (spatial data analysis for urban planning) and studies on microbiome interactions in agricultural systems.
Key research areas include spatial point processes, Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, and statistical inference for complex ecological and biomedical data. His work frequently involves collaborations with environmental and biological scientists, as seen in projects analyzing root microbiota assemblies in legumes and climate data for building simulations.
Waagepetersen has contributed to methodological advancements in spatial statistics, including goodness-of-fit tests, likelihood-based inference for log Gaussian Cox processes, and quasi-likelihood approaches for case-control point pattern data. His research has been supported by grants from institutions like the Villum Foundation.
- Key Projects: urbanLab, Klimadata til fugtsimuleringer, Nod factor signaling in plant microbiota.
- Grants: Multiple projects funded by the Villum Foundation and Danish research councils.
His recent publications address topics such as space-time point processes, microbiome data analysis, and statistical modeling in education. Waagepetersen maintains an active research group and collaborates internationally on both theoretical and applied statistical problems.
