Kaiyi Ji works on the mathematical foundations and algorithms behind modern machine learning, including bilevel optimization (problems with nested learning objectives), multi-task learning, continual learning (systems that learn new tasks without forgetting old ones), and federated learning (training across distributed devices). Much of the work is theoretical, analyzing convergence guarantees and complexity bounds for optimization methods used to train large models, alongside applied projects in areas like robotics and multi-task ranking systems.
