StackExchange:Please reinstate and apologise to Monica Cellio

Statistician, Data Scientist, Economist (also former Lawyer and Policy Advisor)

Principal atACIL Allen; former researcher atANU andUNSW --- see myLinkedIn profile

I am a Statistician, Data Scientist and Economist with broad interests in mathematics, statistics, economics, law, jurisprudence, and philosophy. I have worked within academia and in consulting roles in industry and government. I have formerly worked as a lawyer and policy advisor, so also have a bit of knowledge in those fields. My main research interests are in probability theory, statistical computation, experimental design, sampling theory, applied statistical modelling, Bayesian theory and methodology, and discrimination problems. I do a lot of applied statistical modelling and development of algorithms for statistical analysis and machine learning. I have also developed and examined some new discrete distributions that arise in various sampling problems. I am interested in using data, statistics, economics, and resulting insights to improve decision-processes and help to contribute to a more rational and prosperous world. I love all kinds of data analysis and statistical theory.

I have published academic research in various areas in statistics and philosophy and I have also written a number of essays on subjects of interest to me. I have given presentations at national and international academic conferences. I am also regularly invited to teach at student conferences. In my academic work I have taught a broad swathe of mathematical and statistical subjects to undergraduates and postgraduates, and I have also given a number of presentations on moral and political philosophy to student groups and conferences. I am a regular contributor to the statistics Q&A websiteCrossValidated.SE and the academic Q&A websiteAcademia.SE. In my consulting roles I have developed and uplifted data practices at several major organisations as well as providing training and capability improvement for data teams.

Most of my statistical analysis work is done usingR. I enjoy data analysis and programming in this language. I am the author of fourR packages: thestat.extend package (functions for computing HDRs and confidence intervals); thets.extend package (various functions for ARMA time-series models and testing for periodic signals in time-series), theoccupancy package (probability functions for various occupancy distributions), and theutilities package (a range of functions for preliminary analysis of data).
