Assistant Professor, Mathematics

    Personal profile

    About

    Dr. Otunuga joined the department of mathematics as an assistant professor in fall 2014. He earned his Ph.D. in Pure and Applied Mathematics from University of South Florida and his M.A. from Marshall University.

    His research interests include stochastic dynamical systems, analysis and applications; Mathematical dynamics/modeling of Infectious diseases; Computational biology; and Commodity price modeling and analysis. He is also focusing on a time varying parameter estimation scheme for stochastic differential equations, and modeling and analysis of financial data (energy commodity, U.S. Treasury Interest rate, U.S.-U.K. exchange rate, stock price data, et c.)

    Dr. Otunuga was granted a patent with patent number US 10,719,578, titled “Local lagged Adapted Generalized Method of Moments Dynamic Process.” The patent, abbreviated LLGMM, was granted and issued on July 21, 2020. The embodiments described in the patent are directed towards the development of a time varying parameter and state estimation scheme. Summary of the patent work is described below.
