Bhaskar Bhattacharya
Professor

Professor, Ph.D., University of Iowa, 1993. Order restricted statistical inference, I-projections, linear models, and multivariate analysis.
Research Interests
I am interested in `constrained statistical inference', which includes solving statistical application problems under some type of restrictions. I also work in the area of finding I-projections and investigating their properties.
