About me
I am a Postdoctoral Research Scholar in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence at Arizona State University (ASU). My mentor is Prof. Dimitri P. Bertsekas.
I received my Ph.D. degree from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in 2023 under the supervision of Prof. Jonas Mårtensson and Prof. Karl H. Johansson. My M.Sc. degree was obtained from the same institute in 2016 with my thesis supervised by Prof. Lei Feng. I obtained my B.Eng. degree from Harbin Institute of Technology in 2015.
My research interests include optimal control, reinforcement learning, network optimization, and their application to transportation systems.
