About Me
I am an Assistant Research Professor of Mathematics at Duke University, working with Professors Jianfeng Lu and Jonathan Mattingly. I completed my Ph.D. in Mathematics at Johns Hopkins University, where I was fortunate to be advised by Professors Yannick Sire and Fei Lu.
Research Interests
Machine learning theory and scientific computing, with a focus on learning in dynamical systems, including interacting particle systems, quantum dynamics, and non-Markovian systems with memory. Emphasizes intrinsic low-rank structures, efficient model reduction, and rigorous analysis of error, sample complexity, and convergence of optimization methods; additional interests include data assimilation, inverse problems, and regularization.
