Introduction

I am currently a professor in the Institute of Applied Mathematical Sciences at the National Taiwan University. I mainly working on the inverse problems, partial differential equations, numerical analysis and mathematical modeling. Recently, I am interested in the theoretical foundation of machine learning.   

I do not have a lab in the traditional sense. Instead, I supervise several master’s students and meet with them once a week.


Research Topics

Partial differential equations

Inverse problems

Numerical analysis

Bayesian approach 

Machine learning
