Professional Statement
Professor Se-Kang Kim participates in the development and application of sophisticated statistical methodologies. Present research interests include profile analysis for continuous data and correspondence analysis for categorical data. Correspondence analysis is intended to estimate association visually and quantitatively between any pair of categories included in a two-or multiway-contingency table. Profile analysis is intended to detect the central response patterns from a sample of various person response profiles. Both methods can detect novel, clinically significant features that are not readily captured by conventional statistical methods. His recent research focuses on the creation of innovative and efficient statistical methods and their application to clinical and medical domains. Professor Kim is eager to continue collaborating with research faculty in the Pediatric Psychology Division at Baylor College of Medicine to conduct data-driven, clinically relevant research.Selected Publications

Skills
- Correspondence Analysis
- Correspondence analysis is a statistical method used to examine the relationship between categories in a two- or multi-way contingency table. It allows for the estimation of associations between categories both visually and numerically. The biplot paradigm is employed to project categories onto a two-dimensional plane for a visual examination of category associations. In order to provide numerical estimates of visually observed associations, correlations are calculated based on the category coordinates in the biplot plane.
- Profile Analysis
- Profile analysis is to detect the most predominant response patterns among a set of individual profiles of observed responses. The profile analytic method has been employed to evaluate patients in terms of their symptom improvement and deterioration.
