I'm Deon Roos.
I do stuff.

Lecturer | Scientist | Statistician

Data

Messy, real-world observations that rarely measure what you actually care about directly.

Fields

Interdisciplinary, but a lot in biology and medicine.

Philosophy

Picking the right tool for the question matters more than having a favourite one.

\[\mu_i = f(\rho_{0,i}) + f(\rho_{1,i}) + f(\rho_{2,i})\]

\[\rho_{j,i} = T + \left(\frac{1}{\zeta_{j,i}}\right) \times D_{j,i} \quad \text{for } j \in \{0, 1, 2\}\]

\[D_{j,i} = -\sqrt{(x_j - x_i)^2 + (y_j - y_i)^2}\]

\[\zeta_{j,i} = \beta_0 + \beta_1 \times z_i\]
