Grimsnes, Iceland, last night #northernlights

Extremely proud of Qi Wang who defended her dissertation yesterday entitled "Inexact and Stochastic Large-Scale Nonlinear Optimization." In January she'll be starting a postdoctoral researcher position at the University of Michigan with Uday Shanbhag. Expect to hear more about her in the future!

Thanks to Oliver Hinder and the Department of Industrial Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh for hosting me and letting me share our recent work on stochastic algorithms for constrained optimization and informed machine learning.
