Cho-Jui Hsieh

I am an associate professor of Computer Science at UCLA. I was a Ph.D. student at UT Austin working with Prof. Inderjit Dhillon. I received my master degree in National Taiwan University under supervision of Prof. Chih-Jen Lin. Before joining UCLA, I have worked as an Assistant Professor at UC Davis Computer Science and Statistics for three years, and was a visiting scholar in Google since summer 2018.

I am interested in developing new algorithms and optimization techniques for large-scale machine learning problems. Currently, I am working on developing new machine learning models as well as improving the model size, training speed, prediction speed, and robustness of popular (deep learning) models.
My recent research interests can be found in Research Page.
