Research summary
AI-generated

Rongjie Lai works at the intersection of applied mathematics, machine learning, and computational science. Much of the work develops mathematical theory and numerical methods for problems like mean-field games (models of many interacting agents), learning on curved data spaces (manifolds), and understanding how neural networks such as transformers generalize. Some projects also apply these methods to areas like model reduction and, in a few collaborative papers, hardware sensors.

Publication output has been fairly steady over the last decade, fluctuating between about 7 and 10 papers per year without a strong upward or downward trend.
