About Me

I am an assistant professor in Department of Decisions, Operations and Technology of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Before this, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the Data Science Institute, Columbia University, mentored by Shipra Agrawal. I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science at Washington University in St. Louis, where I was fortunate to be advised by Chien-Ju Ho. I received my bachelor degree from Tianjin University, China.

I am interested in the theoretical aspects of the agentic decision-making, where humans, algorithms, or both act as decision-makers. A typtical question I explore is, for example, how to (efficiently) design or provide information/predictions to help humans/algorithms make desired decisions in complex environments.

My interests include sequential decision-making (with uncertainty), reinforcement learning, information design, socially responsible machine learning, and human-AI interaction. My research spans areas of machine learning, algorithmic economics, and behavioral (social) sciences.
