Research Scientist, postdoc, spatial statistics

We offer our customers research and development services based on our outstanding biological and technological expertise.

Interested in developing statistical methods for large spatial datasets? Join as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the project DIVSPOT to develop new methods for large, heterogeneous point patterns, with applications in forest science and spatial biology.

The postdoctoral researcher will work in the Research Council of Finland funded DIVSPOT project on methodological developments in spatial statistics, with a focus on large-scale point pattern data. The work combines theoretical statistics, computational methods, and real-world applications in forestry and spatial biology.

Responsibilities

• Develop local diversity characteristics for heterogeneous spatial point patterns
• Design statistically rigorous methods for hotspot detection
• Implement computationally eff...
