Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Normal distribution
  • Mathematical analysis

His primary areas of investigation include Applied mathematics, Statistics, Asymptotic distribution, Combinatorics and Local Group. His Applied mathematics research integrates issues from Markov chain Monte Carlo, Hybrid Monte Carlo, Renewal theory and Limit. His Renewal theory research includes elements of Sequential probability ratio test and Sequential analysis.

His research integrates issues of Covariance, Mathematical analysis, Econometrics and Regression in his study of Asymptotic distribution. The various areas that Michael Woodroofe examines in his Combinatorics study include Hilbert space, Ergodicity, Delta and Markov chain. Michael Woodroofe has researched Ratio distribution in several fields, including Normal distribution, Random variable and Posterior predictive distribution.

His most cited work include:

  • Estimating a Distribution Function with Truncated Data (430 citations)
  • Nonlinear Renewal Theory in Sequential Analysis (408 citations)
  • Velocity dispersion profiles of seven dwarf spheroidal galaxies (269 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Michael Woodroofe mainly investigates Statistics, Applied mathematics, Combinatorics, Estimator and Central limit theorem. The study incorporates disciplines such as Sequential analysis, Renewal theory, Sequential estimation, Mathematical optimization and Asymptotic distribution in addition to Applied mathematics. The concepts of his Combinatorics study are interwoven with issues in Conditional probability distribution, Random variable, Markov chain and Normal distribution.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Consistency, Dark matter and Empirical distribution function. His research on Dark matter also deals with topics like

  • Stars and Astrophysics most often made with reference to Asymptotic theory,
  • Radial velocity, which have a strong connection to Local Group. His Central limit theorem study combines topics in areas such as Martingale, Stationary process, Mathematical analysis and Random field.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Statistics (39.47%)
  • Applied mathematics (32.24%)
  • Combinatorics (20.39%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2018)?

  • Central limit theorem (15.13%)
  • Estimator (21.71%)
  • Mathematical analysis (14.47%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Michael Woodroofe spends much of his time researching Central limit theorem, Estimator, Mathematical analysis, Stars and Milky Way. His Central limit theorem study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pure mathematics, Conditional probability distribution, Random walk and Random field. Estimator is a subfield of Statistics that Michael Woodroofe studies.

Michael Woodroofe regularly ties together related areas like Rate of convergence in his Statistics studies. His research in Stars tackles topics such as Galaxy which are related to areas like Radial velocity. His Milky Way research incorporates elements of Algorithm, Range, Dark matter and Expectation–maximization algorithm.

Between 2006 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Velocity dispersion profiles of seven dwarf spheroidal galaxies (269 citations)
  • CLEAN KINEMATIC SAMPLES IN DWARF SPHEROIDALS: AN ALGORITHM FOR EVALUATING MEMBERSHIP AND ESTIMATING DISTRIBUTION PARAMETERS WHEN CONTAMINATION IS PRESENT (108 citations)
  • INCONSISTENCY OF BOOTSTRAP: THE GRENANDER ESTIMATOR (77 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Normal distribution
  • Mathematical analysis

His primary areas of investigation include Applied mathematics, Estimator, Central limit theorem, Galaxy and Invariance principle. While the research belongs to areas of Applied mathematics, Michael Woodroofe spends his time largely on the problem of Consistency, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Probability distribution, Bootstrapping, Order statistic, Limit and Consistent estimator. His Central limit theorem research incorporates themes from Conditional probability distribution and Combinatorics.

His work in Galaxy addresses subjects such as Stars, which are connected to disciplines such as Data reduction and Spectral line. Michael Woodroofe works mostly in the field of Milky Way, limiting it down to concerns involving Velocity dispersion and, occasionally, Radial velocity. His studies deal with areas such as Satellite galaxy and Surface brightness as well as Local Group.
