About me
Welcome! I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at Texas A&M University. I am very fortunate to be hosted by Professor P. R. Kumar.
I am super excited to announce that I will be joining the Department of Computer Science at National Chiao Tung University (NCTU) as an Assistant Professor in August 2019.
My research focuses on stochastic optimization for wireless networks, software-defined wireless testbeds, and (most recently) multi-armed bandits and reinforcement learning. For more details, please see Initiatives.
To Prospective Students
I am currently looking for highly-motivated students (starting from August 2019) who are interested in either theoretical or system aspects of wireless networking, bandit learning, reinforcement learning, or other related areas. Both graduate and undergraduate students at NCTU are encouraged to discuss with me if you are interested in my research.
