Yannick BARAUD is a Full Professor in Mathematics at the University of Luxembourg, leading the group 'Developing Contemporary Mathematical Statistics' within the Department of Mathematics. He holds the ERA-Chair 'SanDAL' in Mathematical Statistics and Data Science, funded by the European Commission. His research focuses on robust estimation, model selection, hypothesis testing, and nonparametric methods. He serves as the Study Programme Director for the Master in Data Science and has held academic positions at the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis and CNRS. His career includes roles as a researcher at École Normale Supérieure (Paris) and a lecturer at the same institution. He earned his PhD from Université Paris-Sud and studied at École Normale Supérieure de Cachan.
His work emphasizes rigorous statistical methodologies, including rho-estimation and robust Bayes-like approaches. Notable contributions include advancements in density estimation under shape constraints and robust regression techniques. He has published extensively on topics such as loss functions, empirical processes, and statistical inference, with applications in epidemiology and data science. His leadership in the SanDAL initiative underscores his commitment to bridging mathematical statistics and practical data science challenges. Collaborations and grants further highlight his role in advancing interdisciplinary research.
