Graph-based mutually exciting point processes for modelling event times in docked bike-sharing systems

Preprint (submitted for publication), 2023

This paper is an extension of my 2nd year group project, which consisted on fitting Hawkes processes to the London Santander Cycle bike-sharing system. In this paper we employ a spatial component in the model to take in account distances between docking stations when predicting bike usage.

Adaptively Optimised Adaptive Importance Samplers

Preprint (submitted for publication), 2023

This paper, which stemmed out of my BSc project, introduces a new adaptive importance sampling algorithm that used adaptive optimisation to adapt the proposal distribution.

Regularised B-splines projected Gaussian Process priors to estimate time-trends of age-specific COVID-19 deaths related to vaccine roll-out

Appeared in Bayesian Analysis on Sep 2023, 2021

In this paper we fit beta splines to COVID-19 mortality data for each US state and use the fitted curves to estimate future deaths.
