Xunpeng Huang

Ph.D. student of HKUST

I am a third-year Ph.D. student at HKUST, co-advised by Prof. Tong Zhang and Prof. Yang Xiang. I am furtunate work closely with Prof. Yi-an Ma (University of California San Diego) and Prof. Difan Zou (The University of Hong Kong). Before that, I finished my B.sc. degree in School of Mathematics and Computer Science from Fuzhou University. I got my M.sc. degree in School of Computer Science and Technology from University of Science and Technology of China supervised by Prof. Enhong Chen. Besides, I used to work at Bytedance AI Lab under Prof. Lei Li’s supervision. My current research interests are machine learning algorithms and theory including sampling algorithms, stochastic/nonconvex optimization and mean-field analysis.
