Selected papers

Isotone optimization

Efficient Algorithms for General Isotone Optimization

Algorithmic work on general order-constrained optimization, focused on efficient methods that scale beyond the narrowest special cases.

AAAI · 2022

High-order portfolios

Efficient and Scalable Parametric High-Order Portfolios Design via the Skew-t Distribution

A portfolio-optimization formulation that brings higher-order moments into a scalable parametric model instead of treating them as a purely theoretical extension.

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing · 2023

Graph learning

Learning Large-Scale MTP2 Gaussian Graphical Models via Bridge-Block Decomposition

A decomposition-based route for learning large-scale structured graphical models while keeping the computation practical at nontrivial problem sizes.
