Research Interests
My main research interests are statistical machine learning and game theory. I am currently working on fast methods for detecting spatial overdensities (for example, clusters of disease cases).

Scan Statistics
A fast implementation of scan statistic search for spatial overdensities. Our goal is to find rectangular regions where the count (e.g. number of disease cases) is higher than expected, given the underlying population distribution.
