Welcome to Samuel’s homepage!

I’m currently a third-year Ph.D. student at NYU Shanghai and Center for Data Science, New York University advised by Prof. Shuyang Ling. Before joining Center for Data Science, I received a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics from New York University Shanghai with the senior thesis on community detection in directed graphs (Exact recovery in stochastic coblock models ) advised by Prof. Shuyang Ling.

My research interest generally lies in

  • Mathematics of Data Science: Optimization, Statistics, Inverse Problems, Spectral methods
  • Machine Learning: Representation Learning, Clustering, Data Visualization
  • Graphs and Networks: Community Detection, Graph Matching, Procrustes Matching
  • Deep Learning: Theory, Application in Computer Vision

This is my CV.
