Biography

Adrian Baddeley (born 1955, Melbourne, Australia) is a statistical scientist working in the fields of spatial statistics, statistical computing, stereology and stochastic geometry.

Life and career

Adrian Baddeley was educated at Eltham High School in Melbourne, Australia, and studied mathematics and statistics at the Australian National University (honours supervisor: Roger Miles) and the University of Cambridge (PhD supervisor: David George Kendall). He was elected a Junior Research Fellow at Trinity College Cambridge in the second year of his PhD. Subsequently he worked for the University of Bath (1982–85), the CSIRO Division of Mathematics and Statistics, Sydney (1985–88), the Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (1988–94),the University of Western Australia (where he was Professor of Statistics from 1994 to 2010), CSIRO Division of Mathematics, Informatics and Statistics, Perth (2010-2012), and the Centre for Exploration Targeting at the University of Western Australia (2013-2014).He is now Professor of Computational Statistics at Curtin University.

Research

Stereology

Classical methods of stereology were limited by the requirement that the cutting plane be randomly oriented. Baddeley developed an alternative techniquein which the cutting plane is `vertical' (parallel to a fixed axis, or perpendicular to a fixed surface) making it possible to apply quantitative microscopy to cylindrical core samples, samples of flat materials, and longitudinal sections.

Baddeley is a leading advocate of statistical ideas in stereology. With Cruz-Orive he demonstrated the role of the Horvitz-Thompson weighting principleand the Rao-Blackwell theorem in stereological sampling.

Spatial statistics

Baddeley has developed statistical methodology for analysingspatial patterns of points, including methods based on survival analysis,nonparametrics,new point process models,model-fitting principles and algorithmsand open-source software.
