Professor

yu.jpg Bin Yu I enjoy mystery-solving -- no matter if it is about research or people.

Students

  Yuval Benjamini  
hongwei.png Hongwei Li Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
lim.jpg Chinghway Lim What intrigues me about statistics is its ability to extract meaningful information from seemingly hopelessly noisy data.
garv.png Garvesh Raskutti Indian-born confused Australian.
karl.png Karl Rohe Looking for a simple solution to several complex problems. Compost is one example. In research, the problems are modeling, computation, and visualization. Here, L2 boosting exemplifies a simple solution.
yq.png Yueqing Wang "The journey between what you once were and who you are now becoming is where the dance of life really takes place."

Postdocs and Visitors

kyle.png Kyle Jia I am a postdoc. I recently graduated from Peking University, China. I love this quote of Nikolai Ostrovsky, "Man's dearest possession is life. It is given to him but once, and he must live it so as to feel no torturing regrets for wasted years, never know the burning shame of a mean and petty past. "
