Short Bio

Debora Slanzi is research fellow at the Department of Statistics of the University Ca’ Foscari of Venice. Graduated in 2002 in Statistics at the University of Padova, in 2006 she has got the PhD in Statistics at the University of Padova. She was a visiting PhD student at the Department of Computer Science of the Aalborg University. She is a member of the Italian Statistical Society.
Her main research interests regard Bayesian Statistics and Probability Theory as tools for the analysis of uncertainty in complex and multidimensional systems, multivariate statistical analysis and patterns of dependence by means of graphical models including ease of comprehension, of expert opinion’s elicitation and of comparing probabilities. Recent research projects are devoted to design of experiments in genomics and molecular biology, machine learning and data mining especially in classification problems and feature selection in high dimensional systems.
