DR. KOBI ABAYOMI

Dr. Kobi Abayomi is a professional statistician with widely cited publications in top journals for methodological and applied research work. He specializes in developing models from first principles and tailored particularly for each research question.

His methodological work is on statistical dependency:

• Machine Learning algorithms
• Constrained sum measures
• Non-Gaussian data
• Multivariate dimension reduction

He has completed and published innovative work for clients such as the World Bank, United Nations, the Government of Ecuador, and the Innocence Project. He has over 15 years of experience discovering, consulting, publishing, and teaching Probability and Statistics with a focus on measures of dependency, environmental sustainability, social networks, social inequality and justice.

He is a graduate of Georgia Tech and Columbia Universities and has completed postdocs at Duke and Stanford Universities. He enjoys his wonderful smart daughter Xènia, his dog Trooper, kayaking, swimming, record and book collecting.
