clubSandwich - OSPO Spring Internship Program Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research Data Science Institute $15.00-17.00 UW Student Jobs
clubSandwich (https://github.com/jepusto/clubSandwich) is a popular R package (in the top 10 percent of all R package downloads) that provides several cluster-robust variance estimators for ordinary and weighted least squares linear regression models, two-stage least squares regression models, and generalized linear models. Several adjustments are incorporated to improve small-sample performance. The package follows an object-oriented design to allow for straight-forward extension to other classes of regression models. Several models are not currently supported but are on the roadmap. An intern would be responsible for 1) learning about a statistical model that is not currently supported, 2) developing required methods so that the clubSandwich works for the model, 3) writing unit tests and examples to verify correct implementation.

LASSO - OSPO Spring Internship Program Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research Data Science Institute $15.00-17.00 UW Student Jobs
The LASSO (i.e., l1 regularization) is one of the most important methods in modern statistics and machine learning, enabling practitioners to fit high-dimensional models with more latent parameters than observations. From the linear models that underpin genome-wide association studies to deep neural network, l1 regularization is an indispensable tool in modern data science. While some of the LASSO's popularity and ubiquity can be attributed to its strong empirical performance and its favorable theoretical properties, a far larger share is due to the availability of easy-to-use open-source software implementations, notably the glmnet package in R.
Matern Covariance - OSPO Spring Internship Program Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research Data Science Institute $15.00-17.00 UW Student Jobs
The project mentor has a library for fast evaluation of the Matern covariance function _and_ its derivatives, including with respect to the smoothness parameter. This originally stemmed from a paper they wrote a few years ago about using autodiff to accurately differentiate the Matern function with respect to the smoothness parameter, which is not possible in closed form without using generalized confluent hypergeometric functions. But this is a problem, because as the theory around fixed-domain asymptotics for Gaussian processes indicates this parameter is quite likely the most important one to be fitting.
