Transport Economics
|
|
Funded by the French Cooperation with the support of
the World Bank, research in
this area is conducted in cooperation with the National Institute for
Research on Transport & Security (INRETS, Paris, France), the
Transport Economics Laboratory (LET, Lyon, France), and the
International Solidarity on Transport in Sub-Saharan Africa. In 1986,
the World Bank launched the Sub-Saharan African Transport Program, which initiated several
research activities.

Mathematical Methods for Fuzzy Data
|
|
Research I conducted in Transport Economics showed that in determining trucking price
indicators, classical
mathematical methods do not always yield good results. The main
reason for this is that the information collected for these studies is,
for the most part, poorly defined or vague.
In 1993, these findings made me launch a massive
research program aimed at building new mathematical and computing tools
for the assessment of poorly defined information or fuzzy intelligence.
This research culminated to the defense of a Doctorate
in Mathematics in February 1998 (see the "Recent Publications & Other Works" section).
Since then, most of my research activities have
geared towards the development of new evaluation and decision-support
methods in the science of the uncertain. |

Health Economics
|
|
For fifteen years I have had an interest for
mathematics tools in the health sector and resumed research in Health
Economics and Communal Health a few years ago.
I focus on mathematical
methods for analyzing healthcare systems. In this framework,
research evaluates healthcare strategies in a universe of uncertain or
poorly defined circumstances. |
