Yingying is keen to apply mathematics and optimization methods in real-world problems.

She is passionate about solving optimization problems, algorithms and complexity.
Yingying completed her master’s degree in Applied Mathematics in China. She mainly majored in Graph Theory and Combinatorial Optimisation.

Her previous research focused on optimising reliability and fault tolerance of interconnect networks. The analysis of the optimal properties of large-scale networks helped engineers to design more reliable networks and to minimise the cost.

Yingying will complete her PhD with Professor Ryan Loxton and Professor Andrew Rohl at Curtin University. She will be focusing on research associated with Theme 3 - Support the Manager.

Yingying's PhD Project is Optimal Maintenance Scheduling via Mathematical Programming https://jira.maintenance.org.au/browse/PROJ-50
