- Biography
Yanqing Wang is an assistant professor in the Institute for Insight at the J. Mack Robinson College of Business. Before joining Robinson, Yanqing got her PhD in statistics from Texas A & M University and received a postdoc training at Fred Hutchison Cancer Research Center in Washington State.
Yanqing’s research interests lie in the investigation of complex and high dimensional "big data" problems, specifically at the intersection of machine learning, survival analysis and image analysis. In particular, Yanqing’s research focuses on three areas: learning-based methods for individualized treatment rules, model selection principles for misspecified models in longitudinal analysis, and statistical analysis for error assessment and prediction in image matching.
Yanqing teaches IFI8410 (Programming for Business) and IFI8420 (Business Machine Learning) for AI certificate students, and MBA 8045 (Analytic Experience)for MBA students, and MSA8600 (Deep Learning) for MSA students.
