About
My name is Keith O'Hara. I obtained my Ph.D. in Economics from NYU in 2018, where my research focused on econometrics and computational methods.
I am the author of several open-source C++ libraries and R packages in the areas of:
- Macroeconometrics
- Optimal Transport and models of matching
- Statistics
- Nonlinear optimization
- Bayesian simulation methods
- Compile-time computation of special functions
Other open-source projects that I like and, on occasion, contribute to:
- The R Project
- macOS developers: consider joining the dedicated development list.
- A new group, started by John C. Nash, and supported by the R Consortium, is revisiting many of R's core algorithms. Checkout our progress here.
- Armadillo C++ linear algebra library
- An expression template library for matrix-based computation.
- R wrapper.
My contact details are below.
- If you are contacting me about an issue related to a project that is hosted on a social coding platform (like GitHub), consider using the associated issues feature instead.
