A key research focus is estimation of covariance matrices in sample-starved settings using sparsity or other low-dimensional structures. On the computational front, I am particularly interested in the development and analysis of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. In recent years, I have developed a growing interest in applying statistical methods to macroeconomic forecasting. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13px\">Additionally, I have been involved in several collaborative and interdisciplinary projects with researchers from a range of fields, including chemistry, neuroscience, pharmacy, animal science and molecular biology.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Background<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ph.D. in Statistics, 2009, Stanford University<br>\nMasters in Mathematical Finance, 2009, Standford University<br>\nMasters in Statistics, 2004, Indian Statistical Institute, India<br>\nBachelors in Statistics, 2002, Indian Statistical Institute, India<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Editorial Service<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Current<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Co-Editor, Sankhya Series A<br>\nAssociate Editor, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Past<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Associate Editor, Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference<br>\nAssociate Editor, Environmetrics<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact Information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Email: kdkhare@stat.ufl.edu<br>\nPhone:\u00a0(352) 273-2985<br>\nOffice: 208 Griffin-Floyd Hall<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Mailing address:<br>\nDepartment of Statistics<br>\n103 Griffin-Floyd Hall<br>\nUniversity of Florida<br>\nGainesville, FL 32611<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1004,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"featured_post":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-2","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/kdkhare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/kdkhare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/kdkhare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/kdkhare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1004"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/kdkhare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/kdkhare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":637,"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/kdkhare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2\/revisions\/637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.clas.ufl.edu\/kdkhare\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
