Research Interests
My research focuses on the theoretical and algorithmic foundations of mathematical optimization, data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. My current research directions include:
Provably efficient optimization methods for large-scale and resource-constrained settings.
Matrix and tensor methods for structured sampling, recovery, and inverse problems.
Mathematics-driven artificial intelligence, including learning-augmented algorithms, structured model design, and resource-efficient training of foundation models.
Data-driven modeling and discovery of patterns and dynamics in complex spatiotemporal systems.
