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