Biography
I am an assistant professor in the Department of Operations Research & Financial Engineering at Princeton University. Previously, I was an assistant professor in the Department of Statistics at Rutgers University, New Brunswick. I received my PhD in Statistics and Data Science from Yale University in 2018, where I was fortunate to have been mentored by Andrew Barron. From 2017 to 2018, I was a visiting graduate student in the statistics department at Wharton.
My research is partially supported by NSF DMS-2054808 (PI) and TRIPODS DATA-INSPIRE Institute CCF-1934924 (Senior Personnel). Thank you, NSF! I am a participating faculty at the Center for Statistics and Machine Learning (CSML) at Princeton and senior personnel on TRIPODS DATA-INSPIRE Institute at Rutgers.
CV
My curriculum vitae is available here (January 2022).
Research Interests
I am broadly interested in statistics and machine learning, particularly for large scale problems.
- decision tree learning (e.g., random forests, CART, C4.5)
- neural networks (approximation and statistical properties)
- asymptotic behavior of convex programs (e.g., LASSO, SLOPE)
Students
- Peter Tian (Princeton)
- Cheng Gao (Princeton, co-advised with Jianqing Fan)
- Xin Chen (Princeton)
