> We are seeking outstanding postdoctoral candidates with a strong interdisciplinary background across statistics, machine learning, finance, and economics. Potential projects include: (A) modelling and analysis of high-frequency financial data; (B) developing models for high-dimensional time-series data; (C) methods to improve information flow for sequential decision making; (D) modelling high-dimensional, dynamic financial networks; (E) causal inference and design of experiments in dynamic systems (i.e., leveraging reinforcement learning and bandits); (F) causal inference with strategic agents (i.e., leveraging game theory and strategic network formation models). The ideal project develops a new quantitative approach and applies it to an important problem. Areas of special interest include financial and economic data; dynamic models, latent factor models, network models, ensemble methods, causal inference, design of experiments, sequential decision making.

> This joint research effort offers a highly energetic environment for working on a wide range of challenging methodological problems in data science, statistics, and beyond. We are involved in a collaboration with Wells Fargo. Postdocs will collaborate on these projects. We also work closely with collaborators at other universities and in industry, in order to identify and address technical problems for which a solution would have a substantial impact in the world. Postdocs will contribute to projects at the Fox Data Science Center, housed in the Fox School of Business at Temple University.
