Stanford Ph. D.
Private tutor in Sydney, Australia
Education
PhD in Statistics, STANFORD UNIVERSITY, graduate degree in Finance, Stanford Business School RATE: from AUD 75 / hour
Experience
I consult in Applied Statistics, Theoretical Statistics, Biostatistics, Probability, Econometrics and Finance. I have taught more than 10 undergraduate, master's level and PhD level courses at Stanford over a period of 5 years. Have consulted researchers in the fields of Medicine, Biology, Finance, Marketing, Psychology, Sociology, Education and Engineering at Stanford for 2 years. Have done the same in other parts of the U.S. for 4 years. Worked in industry for 10 years, focusing on projects pertaining to data mining, cluster analysis, factor analysis, time series analysis, stochastic volatility modeling / derivative pricing, statistical arbitrage / development of proprietary trading strategies, and so on. I help with projects, exams, homeworks, presentations, experimental design, empirical research, dissertation defense, systems development and general understanding of the material. I consult via S K Y P E (allows videoconferencing & screen sharing), e-mail and phone. Also, I provide detailed solutions to projects via e-mail. Selected areas of expertise: ____ hypotheses testing, ____ robust statistics, ____ linear regression, ____ generalized linear models ( GLM ), ____ panel data, ____ non-parametric tests, ____ ANOVA / ANCOVA / MANOVA, ____ Monte Carlo simulation, ____ Bayesian statistics, ____ factor analysis / principal components, ____ discriminant analysis, ____ cluster analysis, ____ biostatistics / bioinformatics, ____ statistics in psychology, ____ machine learning / data mining, ____ time series, ____ stochastic processes ( Markov chain, Poisson process ) ____ stochastic calculus, ____ derivative pricing ( option, knockout, swap, CDS, CDO ), ____ portfolio optimization & risk management, ____ statistical arbitrage, ____ financial economics, ____ survival analysis / insurance models, ____ numerical methods, ____ Matlab, R, Stata, SPSS, SAS, Minitab, EViews, JMP, Excel. The base rate corresponds to "mainstream" projects. Advanced material is likely to cost more. These are the _______ RULES: 1] If you need a consultation on the hourly basis, then send me a tentative list of topics or a syllabus. I will then give you the hourly rate. Typically, a consulting session lasts at least 2 hours. 2] If you need me to do a project for you, send me a 2-3 paragraph description. If the project requires data analysis, send me a sample of the data, so that I could see the format. I will then give you a flat price for producing a detailed solution, including conclusions as a Word doc. 3] All work is done AFTER you have paid via PayPal. Under special circumstances, checks and bank transfers may be acceptable. No cash. _____________________________________________ KD: statistics tutor, statistics, statistics teacher, finance tutor, finance, finance teacher, EM algorithm, Gibbs sampler, Bayes, Bayesian, ridge, lasso, nearest neighbor, discriminant, cluster, factor, analysis, logistic, logit, probit, spline, kernel, data mining, signal processing, pattern recognition, neural network, wavelet, instrumental, simultaneous equations, method of moments, likelihood, conditional, quasi, Hidden Markov Model ( HMM ), ARMA, ARCH, GARCH, ARDL, stationary process, Markov chain, spectral, autocorrelation, Kalman filter, filtering, forecast, structural equation modeling, z-score, t-test, F-test, chi-square, Wilcoxon, analysis of variance (ANOVA), analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), leverage, outlier, diagnostic, survival, shrinkage, Bonferroni, family-wise error rate, Monte Carlo, robust, variance, large sample, bootstrap, generalized linear model (GLM), longitudinal study, panel data, mixed effect, random effect, negative binomial, discrete, joint, distribution, diffusion, volatility, martingale, point, counting, Poisson, Brownian, Levy, Feynman-Kac, option pricing, risk-neutral, derivative, heteroskedasticity, market, Black-Scholes, term structure, FX, FOREX, credit, equity, portfolio, proprietary strategy, statistical arbitrage (statarb), Sharpe ratio, technical, biometry; statistics tutor, statistical software package, biostatistics tutor, statistics in finance tutor, statistical consulting, statistics consultant, finance, teaching, tutor, tutoring, mathematics, math, stats, quantitative finance, financial; actuarial science, optimization; Sydney, Australia
