Nanang Susyanto

Biography

Dr. Nanang Susyanto is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Universitas Gadjah Mada and the Head of the Department of Mathematics.

After finishing master in mathematics with topics in analysis, he did a Ph.D. in applied statistics, which was supervised by a professor in statistical theory from University of Amsterdam and experts in biometric recognition from University of Twente, which trained hiss skill in solving problems with suitable theoretical and practical doses. He finished his Ph.D. in 2016 and took a professional M.Act.Sc program at the University of Waterloo in 2019 in order to get a comprehensive knowledge of actuarial science.

The big picture of his research is the problem-based mathematical models supported by statistical methods and machine learning. Some of the areas that he has explored are the phenomenon of the spread of disease, the spread of smoking behavior, queuing, scheduling, and classification models. 

As a researcher, he has spirit to widen the applications of mathematics in the real world without forgetting the concept itself. In 2017, he got the European Biometrics Research Award for his new copula-based method for combining biometric recognition systems. Recently, with my student, I published a paper in Vehicle Routing Problem optimization, which was a joint work with one of the unicorn start-up companies in Indonesia. This motivates him to have more collaborations with industries to bring students closer to them.

 

Research interests

Nanang’s research interest is problem-based mathematical models. In doing his research, he mainly develops 3 aspects: statistical methods, mathematical models, and machine learning. Some focuses from the statistical side are the semiparametric model, estimation, and copula. From the modeling side, he develops some models and investigates their dynamics of them using dynamical system approach. Recently, he starts integrating machine learning with mathematical models.
