Queenie Huang

Queenie Huang is a current PhD student and Tutor at the School of Mathematics & Statistics, Faculty of Science, University of New South Wales (UNSW). Under the supervision of Prof. Jeya Jeyakumar and Prof. Guoyin Li, her research focuses on Distributionally Robust Optimization, with applications in machine learning and mathematical modeling.

• Academic Background:
  • Bachelor of Advanced Mathematics with First-Class Honours (2022), UNSW
  • Bachelor of Actuarial Studies (2022), UNSW

Her research combines theoretical advancements in robust optimization, polynomial systems, and machine learning, particularly in addressing data uncertainty through sum-of-squares-convex and second-order cone programming techniques. She has presented at prestigious conferences such as the International Symposium on Mathematical Programming in Montreal and workshops in Sydney and Auckland.

Queenie has received multiple accolades including the 2024 Marguerite Frank award and several Women in Maths & Stats Prizes at UNSW. As an educator, she has tutored courses in optimization and actuarial studies, contributing to student engagement through events like Girls Do The Maths and UNSW Open Day Q&A panels.
