Statistical Engineering

What is Statistical Engineering?

The American Statistical Association has noted the challenges facing statisticians when attacking large, complex, and unstructured problems. Statistical engineering has been proposed as a discipline that can provide a viable paradigm to attack such problems, used in conjunction with sound statistical science.

Statistical engineering is the integration of applied research, statistics, and engineering to solve high-impact problems. This integration provides better understanding of uncertainties in knowledge and decision making.

Experimental Design

Most problems cannot be solved with happenstance data. A designed experiment is needed to gain insight.

Data Mining, Inference, & Prediction

Discover useful patterns in large and small datasets. I create knowledge and inform decisions!

Incorporated Knowledge

Gathering and maintaining data has added extra dimensions and skills to jobs in engineering, science, manufacturing, finance, healthcare, etc. Professionals spend decades gaining education and experience in their fields. Few have time to pursue graduate education in statistical methods. This is why companies turn to me.

I’ve incorporated the knowledge to help you fill in the gaps, understand uncertainty, and gain knowledge.
