Qijia Jiang [Chee-ja Jee-ang]


I am an Assistant Professor in the Statistics and Applied Mathematics departments at UC Davis (Fall 2024 - ).

I got my PhD in Electrical Engineering from Stanford under Emmanuel Candès in 2021, followed by postdoc at UT Austin and Berkeley. I spent my undergrad at Rice University, studying Electrical Engineering, Statistics and Applied Mathematics, fascinated by quantitative approaches to understand the natural world generally. After all these years, I think this is still what drives me, despite the excursion into several abstract places somewhere along the way.

Research

  • Current Interests: These themes, of course, overlap, and span the theory - application spectrum, as they should.
  • As Google Scholar may suggest, I have also been curious about various topics in optimization, signal processing and statistics in the past.
  • Some Slides related to past and current research
