Chen-Yu Wei

I am an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science department at the University of Virginia. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Associate at MIT working with Prof. Alexander Rakhlin. I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Southern California, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Haipeng Luo. I hold an M.S. degree in Communication Engineering and a B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, both from National Taiwan University.

I am broadly interested in the field of interactive learning, with a focus on designing effective algorithms in a principled manner. My work is centered around the following topics:

I am actively seeking collaborative opportunities, particularly those with a strong potential for practical application.
