Larry Wasserman works on statistical theory and its connections to machine learning and scientific applications. His research statement lists nonparametric inference, large-sample theory, mixture models, Bayesian methods, multiple testing and Causal inference. It also describes collaborations in computer science and astrophysics.[ref]

His expository books connect mathematical foundations with practical statistical procedures, including nonparametric methods that avoid specifying a small fixed family of probability distributions. Such flexibility does not remove assumptions: sampling structure, smoothness and complexity still determine what can be learned and how uncertainty should be quantified. His homepage links the books and their accompanying datasets.[ref]
