Yuhao Wang was born in China. She's currently a Ph.D. student under the supervision of Divesh Aggarwal and Arnab Bhattacharyya , in school of computing, National University of Singapore working on computational and statistical guarantees for algorithms on high-dimensional data. From 2024 to 2025, she served as an applied scientist intern at Amazon, Germany, worked with Dominik Janzing in the AWS Group on causality research for outlier propagation and with Betty Mohler Tesch in the Fashion and Fitness Group on economic data analysis and customer behavior insights. Since summer 2023, she's as a research intern at Center for Integrative Artificial Intelligence, Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence, Abu Dhabi, working with Kun Zhang 's group on topics related to reasoning and inference with causal knowledge. In spring 2022, she served as a visiting researcher with the Causality program at the Simons Institute, UC Berkeley . Between 2018 and 2020, funded by KPN, she worked as a researcher in Mykola Pechenizkiy 's group on the Deep Learning in Core and Edge (DLCE) project at the Eindhoven University of Technology. She received her master's degree under the supervison of Ivan Wang-Hei Ho at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, and her bachelor’s degree in Electronics Science and Technology from Northwest University in China.
Yuhao is broadly interested in the statistical and computational challenges that arise in data science and machine learning. Her research focuses on developing methods for learning, testing, and inference reliable insights from data, with a particular emphasis on causality—understanding causal relationships from observational data despite challenges like unmeasured confounders, outlier propagation, missing data such as truncation, censoring with finite sample guarantees. She's also excited about exploring other fundamental problems in data science and their real-world applications. Her research works are available at her Google Scholar.
