A dot J dot Lawrance at warwick dot ac dot uk

 

 

Tony Lawrance is a professor in Warwick's Department of Statistics, having joined in November 2004 from being Professor and Head of Statistics and Management Mathematics at the University of Birmingham. He has held visiting positions in the USA, Australia, Hong Kong and Japan. While in Birmingham he developed a course in statistics and finance which has also been presented internationally. Former research interests include stochastic point processes and non-Gaussian time series modelling. Current research directions are in the statistical aspects of chaos, mainly in respect of communications modelling, diagnostic and validation aspects of statistical inference,and in nonlinear time series modelling.  The latter is motivated by finance applications and by teaching in Warwick's Financial Mathematics masters programme.  Preferred consulting and appliedwork is in engineering and finance, and in government use and misuseof statistics.  Professor Lawrance has been a Vice-President of the Royal Statistical Society and is currently Chairman of its West Midlands region. Recent publications have appeared in Journal Royal Statistical Society, RSS Significance, IMA Mathematics Today,  IEEE J Circuits Systems, Journal Institute Japan Electronics and Journal Circuits, Systems and Signal processing.
