He will examine some of of his methods in this talk. Greg Ridgeway received his Ph.D. and MS degrees in statistics from the University of Washington, Seattle; and a BS in statistics from the California Polytechnic State University. Prior to joining RAND Dr. Ridgeway worked at Microsoft Research, receiving seven patents for developed methods. He has published studies on some of the largest police departments in the United States, including Los Angeles, New York City, and San Diego.
