Prosjekter
Faglige interesser:
Statistiske metoder 1) Meta-analyse. Samarbeid med professor Elena Kulinskaya og professor Michael B. Dollinger om en serie artikler. En artikkel: "Testing for Homogeneity in Meta-Analysis. I. The One Parameter Case: Standardized Mean Difference" er publisert i Biometrics. Den andre artikkelen: “On the moments of Cochran’s Q statistic under the null hypothesis, with application to the meta-analysis of risk difference” er publisert i Research Synthesis Methods.Vi arbeider med en tredje artikkel om Cochrans Q observator med anvendelse på forholdet mellom andeler (risk ratio). 2) Optimalisering av to-stegs prosesser. Dette var et samarbeid med professor Tormod Næs i forlengelsen av arbeidet med doktoravhandlingen min.Her har vi en artikkel i Quality Engeneering.
