I have moved. My new home page can be found here.
Research Activities
My research concentrates on Gaussian processes in Bayesian
modelling of complex systems. I have worked in
New Analysis
Methods for Healthcare Process Management project, in which I concentrated
on Methods
for Spatial Epidemiology.
New: We have just published an article on
regional differences in alcohol related diseases in Finland in early 2000's (Vanhatalo,
M?el?and Vehtari, 2010). You can
find additional material for it [here] (the
material is in Finnish)
