Academic Achievements
- Published multiple papers in IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, Journal of Machine Learning Research (JMLR), The Annals of Statistics (AoS); invited talks at Princeton University, Cornell ORIE Young Researchers Workshop, INFORMS Annual Meeting, Yale University, Columbia University; organized a session at JSM 2024.
Research Experience
- Currently an Assistant Professor in the School of Operations Research and Information Engineering at Cornell University; previously a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Statistics and Data Science at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.
Education
- Received Ph.D. in 2023 from the Department of Statistics at Stanford University, advised by Professor Andrea Montanari; Bachelor's degree in mathematics from Tsinghua University.
Background
- Research focuses on establishing rigorous foundations for statistical and machine learning methods, while also developing new algorithms guided by theoretical insights. Specific areas include: analyzing and developing sampling algorithms with applications to Bayesian statistics and diffusion models; computational–statistical tradeoffs in high-dimensional statistical settings; mechanism design under misaligned incentives and information asymmetry; learning from machine-generated data.
Miscellany
- Open to research discussions, feel free to reach out via email.
