Introduction

Hi, this is Siqi Zhang. Now I am an Assistant Professor in the IEOM Department, School of Management and Engineering (SME) of Nanjing University (NJU).

I got my Ph.D. degree from the ISE Department of UIUC in 2022, supervised by Prof. Niao He.
Before joining NJU, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics (AMS) of Johns Hopkins University (JHU), collaborating with Prof. Nicolas Loizou

Research Intersts

Broadly speaking, I am interested in optimization and its applications in machine learning. Recently, I am focusing on the following topics:

  • Stochastic optimization, nonconvex optimization, minimax optimization

  • Federated learning and its applications

  • Intersection of machine learning, operation research and optimization
