Biography
Thorsten Schmidt became professor of mathematical stochastics at the University of Freiburg in the summer 2015. He is the successor of Ernst Eberlein.he also has some experience in machine learning. In his career he met interesting problems, both from statistics and financial mathematics. In Friborg he and his young research team are working on tackling these challenges with improved mathematical models and targeting. Besides Finance, this includes medicine, robotic and general in all areas where stochastic modeling is used
Research Interest
His research interests are: mathematics, mathematics, economics, economics, economics, economics, economics, economics, economics, economics.
