Information Page of SAS Employee

František Rublík, SAS

Education and employment

In 1970 he finished his study at the Faculty of Science of the Comenius University in Bratislava in the specialization mathematical statistics and probability theory, and became an employee of the Institute of Measurement Science in Bratislava. In 1973 he obtained the degree RNDr at the Comenius University in Bratislava in the specialization mathematical statistics and probability theory. The postgraduate study he carried out in the external form at the Institute of Information Theory and Automation of Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic in Prague and the degree CSc(PhD) he obtained in 1977.

Research interests

He deals with asymptotic properties of statistical tests, including the likelihood ratio test and his asymptotic optimality. His research includes also nonparametric methods and properties of spatial median. His published works include also the area of L-estimates, goodness-of-fit tests and analysis of principal components.
