Mia Hubert
Mia Hubert is a Belgian mathematical statistician known for her research on topics in robust statistics including medoid-based clustering,[a] regression depth,[b] the medcouple for robustly measuring skewness,[c] box plots for skewed data,[f] and robust principal component analysis,[d] and for her implementations of robust statistical algorithms in the R statistical software system, MATLAB,[e] and S-PLUS.[a] She is a professor in the statistics and data science section of the department of mathematics at KU Leuven.[1]
Education and career
Hubert earned a diploma in mathematics in 1992 from the University of Antwerp,[2] and obtained her Ph.D. in 1997 at the same university. Her dissertation, Robust Regression for Data Analysis, was supervised by Peter Rousseeuw.[3] She joined the KU Leuven faculty in 2001.[2]
Recognition
Hubert became an Elected Member of the International Statistical Institute in 2013.[2][4]
