معرفی
Rongning Wu is an Associate Professor at the Paul H. Chook Department of Information Systems and Statistics within the Zicklin School of Business at Baruch College, City University of New York. Holding a Ph.D. and M.S. in Statistics from Colorado State University and a B.S. in Applied Mathematics from Southeast University, Dr. Wu specializes in advanced statistical modeling with particular focus on time series analysis and count data models.
- Education: Ph.D./M.S. in Statistics (Colorado State University), B.S. in Applied Mathematics (Southeast University)
- Current Roles: Associate Professor, Committee Chair (Statistics Faculty Recruiting), Co-organizer (Department Research Seminar Series)
Dr. Wu's research explores robust statistical methodologies for complex time series data, including Least Absolute Deviation estimation, single-index models with time series errors, negative binomial models for count series, and tail-trimmed absolute deviation techniques. His work addresses challenges in parameter estimation, variance modeling, and structural change detection for both finite and infinite variance processes.
Recent publications highlight advancements in change-point estimation for count time series, conditional maximum likelihood for INGARCH models, and semiparametric approaches for discrete-valued processes. Dr. Wu's methodological contributions find applications in financial data analysis and public health research, particularly in modeling HIV transmission dynamics related to incarceration.
