Tong Xin

Assistant Professor
My research interests lie broadly inside probability theory and its applications in statistics, machine learning and nonlinear systems. My recent research involves investigating the behavior of algorithms, e.g. EnKF, MCMC and SGD, when the problem dimension is high. One of the common theme is that we can show stable performance of these algorithms, if certain intrinsic structures can be exploited
