Research Interests

I'm a third-year Ph.D. student supervised by Prof. Chaoyue Zhao at the University of Washington. I am working on the planning and operation of power distribution networks, including several topics like:
  • Two-stage stochastic/robust integer programming for integrated power systems under uncertainty.

  • Distributionally robust optimization framework for quantifying and analyzing system flexibility.

  • Fleet electrification considering operations of coupled transportation and power systems.

  • Modified progressive hedging algorithm which is faster than Benders decomposition.

  • Deep reinforcement learning approach for optimal power flow of distribution networks.
