For students of NJU interested in research on optimization, machine learning, statistics, feel free to send me an email to schedule a chat.
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
News
[2025.04] One blog post is accepted to ICLR 2025 (Blogposts Track), it summarizes upper and lower bounds of optimization algorithms in minimization and minimax optimization under various settings, we hope it serves as a toolbox for the community. Any constructive feedback, corrections, and suggestions are highly appreciated.
[2024.01] One paper is accepted to ICLR 2024, one paper is accepted to AISTATS 2024, congrat to all the wonderful collaborators!
[2022.06] Successfully passed the Ph.D. dissertation defense!
