Richard A. Davis is the Howard Levene Professor of Statistics at Columbia University's Faculty of Arts and Sciences. He is affiliated with the Data Science Institute (DSI) and the Financial and Business Analytics Center. His research focuses on applied probability, time series analysis, stochastic processes, and extreme value theory, with applications to financial data and spatial modeling. He co-founded the Space-Time Aquatic Resources Modeling and Analysis Program (STARMAP), supported by an EPA-STAR grant.
Education details are not explicitly provided in the text, but his academic roles indicate advanced qualification in statistics. His work combines theoretical advancements with practical applications, such as analyzing financial time series models (e.g., GARCH) and spatial environmental data. Recent research emphasizes high-dimensional extremes, sparsity, and privacy-preserving methods.
His articles explore cutting-edge topics like kernel PCA for multivariate extremes, quantile treatment effects, and goodness-of-fit testing for time series. He has also contributed to applications in healthcare imaging and disaster economics. His collaborative projects aim to bridge statistical theory with environmental and societal challenges.
Key contributions include the STARMAP initiative and grants focused on extreme value analysis. His work often integrates advanced statistical techniques with real-world data challenges, reflecting a commitment to both methodological innovation and interdisciplinary impact.
