Yilei Chen

Hello, I am a 3rd-year PhD student at Boston University majoring in Systems Engneering with Operations Research concentration. Previously, I got my bachelor’s degree in physics at University of Science and Technology of China (USTC).

I am fortunately working with Prof. Aldo Pacchiano and Prof. Yannis Paschalidis on reinforcement learning. My research interest lies in studying and devising foundational models and algorithms for decision-making problems.
