Cédric Josz’s research lies at the intersection of continuous optimization, dynamical systems, and semi-algebraic geometry. He is interested in the design and analysis of algorithms for solving continuous optimization problems arising in industry, and more generally in the mathematics of data science.
Josz was a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California, Berkeley, and at the French National Center for Scientific Research, Toulouse. He received his PhD in applied mathematics in 2016 from the University of Paris VI in collaboration with the French transmission system operator and the French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation. His research is funded by the National Science Foundation and the Office of Naval Research.
