Research & Graduate Teaching Associate

University of South Florida
08.2017 - 12.2022
  • Conducted reliability analysis by proposing a Bayesian approach for a general degradation path model with mixed effects (Multivariate analysis) using accelerated degradation data
  • The model aims to provide manufacturers with a better understanding of the products' reliability performance throughout the entire service life.
  • Designed a novel model utilizing the [penalized log partial likelihood function] to analyze high-dimensional datasets
  • The objective was to identify variables contributing to the survival rates of patients with conditions such as cancer and heart failure.
  • Built comprehensive frameworks, including collection, model-checking diagnostics, analysis, and reporting
  • Devised techniques to maximize the usefulness of steel ball bearings.
  • Applied convolutionary neural network to a cooking state image dataset, proposing a model to recognize and classify the state of cooking objects.
  • Conducted principal component analysis to reduce data dimensionality, identify patterns, and highlight the most significant variables in datasets.
  • Instructed and tutored 300 undergraduate students annually in Statistics and Mathematics, resulting in a 20% increase in students' grade point averages.
