I will be a Postdoctoral Fellow at McGill University and Queen's University, working closely with Prof. Stefanus Jasin (UMich), Prof. Murray Lei (Queen's), and Prof. Alys Liang (McGill). I got my Ph.D. degree from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen), where I was very fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Zizhuo Wang and Prof. Pin Gao. Before that, I obtained my bachelor's degree (ranked 1st) in Industrial Engineering from Xi'an Jiaotong University.  

My research is broadly related to revenue management and online resource allocation, and I am gradually broadening the scope of my research interests. If you are interested in my research and would like to discuss it further, please feel free to catch me at a conference or drop me an email. 😁

Research Interests

• Methodologies: asymptotic analysis, online resource allocation, machine learning, approximate dynamic programming. 

• Applications: revenue management & pricing, AI for OR, OR for AI, OM-marketing interface. 

News:

• The journal version of the "GCN for assortment" paper has been updated. In this paper, we illustrate how to use graph neural networks to learn patterns of optimal assortments from small-scale samples, and then utilize the learned patterns to efficiently solve large-scale constrained assortment problems, which is referred to as "from small to large".
