Functional linear regression

信息处理技术的创新和存储能力的提高使经济、金融、气象和医学等各个领域的连续数据收集成为可能。研究人员、公司和政府都在寻找利用这些丰富信息的方法。我的长期目标是开发统计工具来处理这一不断增长的数据量，并确保所有信息都得到利用。将这些数据视为曲线是解决这个问题的一种优雅方式。

The technological innovations in information processing and the increased storage capability have made possible to collect continuous-time data in various fields such as economics, finance, meteorology and medicine. Researchers, companies, and governments look for ways to exploit this rich information. My long term objective is to develop statistical tools to deal with this ever growing amount of data and to make sure that all the information is taken advantage of. Looking at these data as curves is an elegant way to address this issue.
