Revenue Management (Choice Model, Dynamic Pricing)
Data-driven optimization
Online Learning
Statistical Machine Learning
My research interest lies in data-driven decision-making and statistical learning. I aim to bridge between OR/MS and AI to increase reliability and interpretability for better managerial decisions. From the application prospective, I am interested in revenue management and pricing such as choice models.
