Dominique Brigitte Picard (born March 3, 1952) is a French mathematician who works as a professor in the Laboratoire de Probabilités et Modèles Aléatoires of Paris Diderot University.[1] Her research concerns the statistical applications of wavelets.

Education

[edit]

Picard's doctoral advisor was Didier Dacunha-Castelle.[2]

Recognition

[edit]

She was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in 2006, in the section on probability and statistics.[3] At the congress, she spoke on her work with Gérard Kerkyacharian on "Estimation in inverse problems and second-generation wavelets".[4] She was elected to the National Academy of Sciences as an International Member in 2023. [5]

Selected publications

[edit]

With Valentine Genon-Catalot, Picard is the author of a book on asymptotic theory in statistics, Elements De Statistique Asymptotique (Springer, 1993).[6]

With Wolfgang Härdle, Gerard Kerkyacharian, and Alexander Tsybakov, she is the author of Wavelets, Approximation, and Statistical Applications (Springer, Lecture Notes in Statistics, 1998).[7]

She is also the coauthor of a highly-cited paper in the Journal of the Royal Statistical Society (1995) surveying the wavelet-shrinkage method for nonparametric curve estimation.[8]
