Who I Am and What I Do

Interesting quotes from my friend Ying Nian Wu's website:

The true logic of this world is in the calculus of probabilities. --- J. C. Maxwell

What we see is the solution to a computational problem, our brains compute the most likely causes for the photon absorptions within our eyes. --- H. Helmholtz

I am a teacher who wants to learn all the unknowns and a researcher who is fond of the beauty of mathematics and of the beings. I love statistics, which is both my life and my fun; I like bridge, soccer, badminton and skiing. I am fascinated by biology and by nature wonders of all sorts. Here is a “profile article” about me published by Harvard University Gazette. Contact me: Department of Statistics, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138
