Research Areas

My method and theoretical research, as well as a considerable portion of my applied work, address spatial and longitudinal data. An innovative contribution of my work is to show that agents that change the aspects of urban social life are major players that must be considered when modeling in the urban domain. This has established a new perspective on the analysis and modeling of urban spatial data. This perspective creates a new class of functional estimation procedures that non-parametrically account for the within-subject correlation in an intuitive and efficient manner. Thus, providing a space for more efficient algorithmic modeling of urban developments and urban sociology
