Jiwon's Alcove

Hi! I'm JIWON CHANG, a computer science PhD student. I research data acquisition for ML at the University of Rochester with professor Fatemeh Nargesian.

My current research interest is two-fold. First, how can we acquire data from data repositores to improve model performance? Second, how can we optimize queries where some clauses are given by models? The two objectives are synergistic, since data acquisition queries are often queries that include ML models. There are also fundamental structural similarities where both are naturally modelled as combinatorial optimization problems.

My interests outside of computer science include bug friends and houseplants, science fiction, gaming, minimal and intentional living.

My office hours Fall 2024 are Mon/Wed 10:30AM, Tue 12:30PM, Thu 11AM, and Fri 1PM, 1 hour each, at Wegmans Hall 2311.
