Research Fields

My research interests include machine learning, optimization, and their application to intelligent education. Especially, I am interested in

- derivative-free optimization (e.g., evolutionary optimization, Bayesian optimization) for non-convex problems with theoretical guarantees

- evolutionary machine learning

- learning and optimization based decision-making for intelligent education

- reinforcement learning and multi-armed bandit
