研究兴趣——控制论和控制论视角下的数据与决策科学，具体地：

“数据也是生产要素”（十九届四中全会，2019年）！本课题组以“数据”与“决策”为研究主体，围绕运筹学与最优化、控制论、强化学习等领域的交叉融合与应用，一方面，关注这几个学科内生的基本性问题，以系统学的观点探讨融通共进的一般性理论，另一方面，开展问题驱动的数据科学与决策科学研究，比如群体智能、智能博弈、优化调度、神经组合优化等。

招生说明：

1.  在运筹学与控制论、控制科学与工程、人工智能三方向上招收硕士生、博士生；

2.  招生要求：自主性强，探索精神强，数学基础良好，对科研真正感兴趣 ，做事踏实坐得科研的冷板凳 ；

3.  感兴趣的同学可直接发邮件联系我；但需要知道的是：做研究需要长期持续的投入，且课题组每周都会进行读书班、论文讨论班，会比较辛苦；

4.  参考阅读：
