Dr. Christian Heumann is a Professor at the Department of Statistics, LMU Munich, Germany, where he teaches students in both the Bachelor’s and Master’s programs. His research interests include statistical modeling, computational statistics and methods for missing data, also in connection with causal inference. Recently, he has begun exploring statistical methods in natural language processing.Dr. Michael Schomaker is a Researcher and Heisenberg Fellow at the Department of Statistics, LMU Munich, Germany. He is an honorary Senior Lecturer at the University of Cape Town, South Africa and previously worked as an Associate Professor at UMIT – University for Health Sciences, Medical Informatics and Technology, Austria. For many years he has taught both undergraduate and post-graduate students from various disciplines, including the business and medical sciences, and has written contributions for various introductory textbooks. His research focuses on causal inference, missing data, model averaging, and HIV and public health.Dr. Shalabh is a Professor at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, India. As a post-doctoral researcher he worked at the University of Pittsburgh, USA and LMU Munich, Germany. He has over twenty-five years of experience in teaching and research. His main research areas are linear models, regression analysis, econometrics, error-measurement models, missing data models and sampling theory.
