Xiaoyu Hu

I am a full professor in the Department of Statistics and Data Science, School of Mathematics and Statistics at Xi'an Jiaotong University. Prior to this, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Statistics and Data Science at National University of Singapore, where I worked with Professor Zhenhua Lin and Professor Jin-Ting Zhang.

I received my Ph.D. degree in 2021 from the Department of Probability and Statistics at Peking University, advised by Professor Fang Yao. I was a visiting Ph.D. student in the Department of Statistics and Data Science at Carnegie Mellon University, working with Professor Jing Lei.
