Amr Mustafa, B.Eng.

Amr Mustafa has been a research assistant and doctoral candidate at the Chair of Data Analytics since 2026. He successfully completed his Bachelor of Engineering at the University of Alexandria and his master’s degree in Computer Science, with a focus on algorithms and mathematical modeling, at the University of Passau. In his master’s thesis, he focused on diffusive Gibbs sampling.

His research focuses on the intersection of statistics and machine learning. His main areas of research include copulas, statistical learning and statistical inference, stochastic processes, and Markov-chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. In his doctoral research, he is investigating copula-based approaches to correcting for endogeneity. Methodologically, his research combines probabilistic modeling with modern sampling and inference methods to derive reliable conclusions from complex data.
