Working Experience

  • Google Research, July 2019-June 2020

    • Visiting Researcher
    • Manager: Vahab Mirrokni
    • I continue working on the huge-scale Linear Programming solver at Google.
  • Google Research, Oct 2018-April 2019

    • Student Researcher
    • Mentor: Miles Lubin, Natalia Ponomareva
    • I expanded the project on the huge-scale Linear Programming solver, and developed and implemented the Accelerated Gradient Boosting Machine for CART trees.
  • Google Research, Summer 2018

    • Research Intern
    • Mentor: Miles Lubin, David Applegate
    • In this internship, I designed and implemented a huge-scale Linear Programming solver using first-order methods. The solver is able to solve a Linear Programming problem with multi-billion non-zeros on a single machine, and has the potential to be implemented distributedly across thousands of machines.
  • Google, Summer 2017

    • Software Engineer Intern
    • Mentor: Vahab Mirrokni, Vineet Kahlon
    • In this internship, I developed new machine learning models for reserve price optimization of display advertisements in Google, which gained a 2.7% revenue lift compared with the production model. The models were put on production in 2018Q2.

  • IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, Summer 2016

    • Research Intern
    • Mentor: Andrew Conn
    • In this internship, I developed new distributed optimization methods to solve deep learning problems and conducted extensive computational testing on preliminary tasks.
