I am a tenured assistant professor at the Operations, Planning, Accounting, and Control (OPAC) group at the Eindhoven University of Technology, and assistant professor at the Eindhoven Artificial Intelligence Systems Institute (EAISI), and a visiting assistant professor at the University of British Columbia.
I am also a Member of the
I am also one of the organizers of the Robust Optimization Webinar (ROW) series.
My research focuses on Mathematical Optimization from a practical perspective. More specifically, I am doing research in the area of Robust Optimization and Data-Driven decision-making.
In general, I am interested in:
Data-driven decision making
Robust Optimization
Resilient Engineering
Convex Optimization
Convex relaxation for Nonlinear Optimization
Regarding applications, I am interested in Supply Chain Networks and High-Tech industries.
