Much of my current research involves projects related to the statistical analysis of models using simulated data.
- These projects involve, among other things, computing the number of samples needed to reject an alternative model with the likelihood ratio test, in favor of a true model that produces the data.
- Baseball: how many innings must be played by model of the Baltimore Orioles (fitted from actual Orioles home games) to reject the model that the New York Yankees are playing.
- This statistic is an interpretable way of quantifying the similarity of models.
