Welcome!

I am a final year PhD student at UTokyo where I am very fortunate to be advised by Masashi Sugiyama. I am also a Research Part-time Worker at RIKEN Center for Advanced Intelligence Project.

I got my B.S. from Zhejiang University with major in Statistics.

Research Interests: the complexity of sampling, submodular optimization.
