Duy V. Le

PhD Student in Theoretical Computer Science

Boston University

About Me

I am a first-year PhD student in the Computer Science Department at Boston University, specializing in theoretical computer science. I am advised by Professor Alina Ene.

I completed my undergraduate studies at Oberlin College, where I double-majored in Computer Science and Mathematics. My academic interests lie at the intersection of algorithms, optimization, and machine learning theory, with an emphasis on provable guarantees and principled algorithm design.

Research Interests

Research (In Progress)

I am currently working on problems in online algorithms, including online bipartite matching and online optimal transport, as well as machine learning theory, focusing on approximation techniques for attention mechanisms using locality-sensitive hashing (LSH).

As a first-year PhD student, I do not yet have publications.
