Work Experience
Student Intern
Heng Yang @ Harvard 2023.08 - Current
This work is mainly about exploiting Correlative Sparsity in Sum of Squares problems derived from control theory. After the decision process is discretized, the constraints are only between status in adjacent time points, which makes this problem sparse in nature. We are developing theory and tools for this special sparsity.
Research Assistant
Hu Ding @ USTC 2021.08 - 2023.07
In this project, we designed and implemented a data dependent algorithm for discrete optimial transport. We focus on using simplex methods and attempt to use data structures to improve both the time upper bound and actual performance about augmenting. From this research, I have improved my programming skills increased my knowledge in combinatorial optimizations.
Teaching Assistant
Pan Peng @ USTC Feb 2023 - Jul 2023
As a teaching assistant for “Algorithms for Big Data,” I assisted in teaching a course that introduces new algorithmic techniques for handling big data, including topics such as random sampling, dimension reduction, data compression, distributed computing, streaming algorithms, clustering, classification, and stochastic optimization. The course also covers related theory and mathematics, such as probability foundations, VCdimension, communication complexity, and machine learning theory, and is designed to help students learn the basic theory and algorithms for handling big data problems. The class has a total enrollment of 131 students.
