Optimization

Jiasi Chen

One project my group worked on is cost-efficient use of large language models (LLMs). Recently, there has been a proliferation of LLMs by multiple providers, each with different inference accuracy, monetary cost, and latency. If a user has a finite monetary budget and wants to use LLMs to solve a series of problems, how should ...

I develop and use optimization algorithms (Newton-based, gradient-based, and genetic algorithms) to understand problems in fluid and solid mechanics with applications to biology. Examples of optimally efficient snake locomotion

Kazuhiro Saitou

Dr. Kazuhiro Saitou’s research areas are computational design, manufacturability-driven structural topology optimization, multi-material, multi-process, multi-component structural topology optimization (M^3 TO), computational optimal synthesis of structural assemblies, and physics-informed AI for structural and assembly optimization.

Early warning systems (EWS) that predict patient outcomes for therapeutic interventions are increasingly being used to make clinical decisions. Predicted events often include outcomes such as unplanned ICU transfer, cardiac arrest, or death. The goal of these models is to provide a timely alert to clinicians so they can intervene and prevent these outcomes from ...

Karen Smith

I work in algebraic geometry, especially over finite fields. The set of points on an algebraic variety over particular subfields forms an interesting sequence of data sets. Studying it may, I hope, unlock some secrets of algebraic curves or surfaces or higher dimensional objects. I am also interested in connecting statistical forms of AI (machine ...

Xiao Zhang

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer and Information Science at the University of Michigan-Dearborn, where I lead the Trustworthy AIoT Lab (TAI Lab). Before joining UM-Dearborn, I was a Postdoctoral Associate at Duke University. I obtained my Ph.D. degree in the Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan State University, my M.S. ...

Rabab Haider

I am an Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Michigan. My research centers on designing future energy systems under deep decarbonization, and achieving clean, reliable, and affordable energy for All. My research advances methodologies for planning and operating electric power infrastructure using optimization and AI, and leveraging principles of energy ...

Vladimir Dvorkin

My work focuses on decision-making models and algorithms for enhancing planning, operation, and pricing in electric power systems with substantial renewable energy integration and rising AI-driven electricity demand. This involves developing prescriptive analytics—such as decision-focused and physics-informed machine learning models—to manage grid uncertainties, building large-scale equilibrium models to analyze interactions among AI users in the ...

Jiaqi Li

Dr. Jiaqi Li’s research interests include industrial decarbonization of materials, such as concrete and hydrogen, for civil and energy infrastructure through the use and generation of renewable energy and carbon capture, utilization, and storage. His research uses in-house experimental results to validate modelling work and uses machine learning tools such as regression, clustering, network analysis, ...
