Marie Siew I'm currently a postdoctoral researcher in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Dept, Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof Carlee Joe-Wong. I obtained my PhD from the Singapore University of Technology and Design in 2021, advised by Prof Tony Quek and Dr Desmond Cai. Prior to that, I obtained my BSc. in Mathematical Sciences, from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore in 2016. In my research, I consider user-centric challenges in optimizing resource allocation in edge computing (EC), federated learning (FL) and other network + AI settings, given the user-centric nature of these technologies. To complement efficiency-driven solutions, together with my collaborators, we design user-centric decision making, resource allocation, optimization, and learning algorithms in EC and FL systems, with a focus on user incentives, resilience and fairness. My research has focused on the following themes: a) Incentive-aware Resource Sharing in Edge Computing. b) Resilient Resource allocation in Edge Computing, and c) Fairness and Incentives in Federated Learning. I am also actively exploring Human + AI joint decision making problems, both from the algorithmic perspective, and application driven (e.g. sustainability, smart cities) standpoint.
