David Blum
Research Statement
David's research interests focus on national security applications of decision and risk analysis. They include such things as early warning indicators of crises, Bayesian updating in the intelligence cycle, targeting in counter-terrorism, and signatures of WMD proliferation. He is also interested in modeling decisions made by adversarial state and non-state actors as games with imperfect information.
