I am Yixuan (Even) Xu (徐翊轩), a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at CSD, Carnegie Mellon University, where I am fortunate to be co-advised by Professor Zico Kolter and Professor Fei Fang. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor of Engineering in Computer Science and Technology at Yao Class, Tsinghua University.

My research interests lie in game theory and machine learning. A notable example of my research is a conference paper-reviewer assignment algorithm that was deployed in NeurIPS 2024. See my CV, publications and google scholar for more details about the projects I have done.

Besides research, I have been actively participating in competitive programming. See my CV for selected awards in OI, ICPC and CCPC. You can also find me in Codeforces, Atcoder and Project Euler.
