Dr Boris Beranger
Research Associate
UNSW Sydney
Boris Beranger is currently a research associate at UNSW Sydney. He received a PhD in Statistics jointly from Université Pierre and Marie Curie, Paris 6 and UNSW with a thesis entitled ``Modelling the dependence structure of multivariate and spatial extremes''. His research focus on the analysis of extremes with a particular interests in modelling extreme environmental events. He also has a strong interest in analysing challenging and complex datasets using symbolic data analysis. More information can be found on my webpage
