👋 Hi, I’m Abdulrahman Alswaidan

I’m a Master’s student in Chemical Engineering at Cornell University in the @varnerlab. My research is centered on sequential decision-making under uncertainty. I develop and apply models like Hidden Markov Models (HMMs), Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), and Reinforcement Learning to tackle complex challenges in quantitative finance, power systems, and chemical process control.

👀 I’m interested in:

  • Core Methods: Hidden Markov Models (HMMs), Markov Decision Processes (MDPs), and Reinforcement Learning (RL).
  • Specialized Topics: Multi-Armed Bandits & Contextual Bandits for adaptive decision-making.
  • Applications:
    • Quantitative Finance: Algorithmic trading, volatility modeling, and market simulation.
    • Engineering Control: Optimal control and optimization for power systems and chemical processes.
  • Tools & Techniques: Stochastic modeling, time-series analysis, and numerical optimization in Julia & Python.

🌱 I’m currently learning:

  • Advanced methods in mathematical optimization, including Linear Programming (LP), Nonlinear Programming (NLP), and Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP).
  • Techniques for decision-making under uncertainty, such as Stochastic Programming (SP) and Robust Optimization (RO).
  • The theory and algorithms for solving large-scale problems, from Dynamic Programming to global optimization solvers.
  • Implementing and solving complex optimization models using modern algebraic modeling languages like Pyomo

💞️ I’m looking to collaborate on:

  • Open-source Julia/Python libraries for Reinforcement Learning in financial markets.
  • Applying contextual bandits to real-world optimization or control problems.
  • Developing control frameworks for chemical processes or power grids using MDPs.
  • Research projects exploring the intersection of stochastic modeling and quantitative trading.
