Biography
Hi, my name is Jaeyeon Kim! I’m currently an undergraduate in SNU. Starting this September, I’m joining Harvard CS as a Ph.D. student. My research interest spans optimization and machine learning. Feel free to reach me! I’d love to discuss and potentially collaborate on machine learning theory.
Interests
- Machine Learning Theory
- Optimization Theory
Education
Ph.D. in Computer Science, 2024
Harvard University
B.S. in Mathematics, 2020
Seoul National University
Recent News
2024.09 I’ll start my Ph.D. at Harvard University, prospectively advised by Prof. Sitan Chen. I’m really thrilled to pursue my research career at Harvard University!
2024.04 Excited to announce my new paper, Optimal Acceleration for Minimax and Fixed-Point Problems is Not Unique (ICML 2024). By proposing novel algorithms, we suggested that the optimal acceleration mechanism in minimax optimization and fixed-point problems is not unique. Surprisingly, our new algorithms are H-dual to the prior anchor-based accelerated methods: We discover H-duality in another setups!
2023.12 I attended NeurIPS 2023 and gave a poster presentation.
