My research interests are in the broad areas of statistical surveillance and sequential detection. In particular, I am interested in quickest detection of abrupt changes as applied to finance, signal processing, decentralized detection, network security, computer vision and quality control. I am also interested in optimal stopping and stochastic optimization problems in the context of dynamic programming and financial engineering.



A little bit about myself: I was born in Athens, Greece in 1976. All my undergraduate studies were completed in Toronto, Canada, where I studied Statistics. I then completed a Master's degree in Mathematics with specialization in Statistics and Finance at the University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Canada. I worked as an intern for Citibank Canada and as an Associate Financial Engineer at Algorithmics Inc. in Toronto, Canada. I finally completed my PhD at the Department of Statistics of Columbia University in 2005 with distinction. For a title and abstract of my thesis please refer to the link underneath:
