Research Interest

My research interest focus on theory and applications of automated machine learning, including:

• explainable/interpretable neural architecture search (NAS)
• convergence analysis for evolutionary computation-based NAS
• multi-/many-objective/ and constrained optimization for NAS
• low-energy consumption NAS with high-inference speed
• feature selection and construction
• auto data augmentation
