He grew up in Vienna, attended secondary school at the Theresianum there (graduating in 1998) and obtained his academic degrees from the University of Vienna, including a PhD in 2005.[3] He has made contributions to various areas of mathematical statistics, including non-parametric and high-dimensional inference and empirical process theory[4]. Jointly with Evarist Giné, he is the author of the monograph `Mathematical foundations of infinite-dimensional statistical models'[5], published with Cambridge University Press, which won the 2017 PROSE Award in the mathematics category.[6] He has been awarded the 2017 Ethel Newbold Prize of the Bernoulli Society and in 2015 was a recipient of a Consolidator Grant Award[7] by the European Research Council.

gollark: Hmmm, that does sound like a hard problem.
gollark: But there may be a better approach for your particular problem, so what is it for exactly?
gollark: The Σ bits are just "sum of", which are really easy to implement with for loops.
gollark: That's not too terrible.
gollark: What's this for, exactly?
