Rachel Ward is interested in developing mathematical theory for modern optimization methods in large-scale machine learning. At IAS, Ward hopes to draw from and develop tools in probability and analysis to shed more light on aspects of modern large-scale optimization, such as generalization, overparameterization, adaptivity, and stability.
