AI-drivenDecision-makingand Optimization Lab
The IDO group works at the intersection of artificial intelligence with power and energy systems, advancing foundational theory and applied methods for modeling, analysis, decision-making, and optimization in complex systems, with a commitment to deploying intelligent algorithms in real-world engineering scenarios.
In artificial intelligence, the group systematically investigates machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and large-scale models, exploring their applications in intelligent decision-making, optimization decision-making, data-driven modeling, and uncertainty analysis. In power and energy systems, the group focuses on operation optimization, dispatch and control, security assessment, situational awareness, and energy coordination for modern power and energy systems, addressing the challenges brought by high-penetration renewable energy integration.

Principal Investigator
Qingchun Hou
Qingchun Hou, doctoral supervisor and researcher, received his Ph.D. from the Department of Electrical Engineering, Tsinghua University, under Professor Chongqing Kang (IEEE Fellow, Department Head, National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars) and in collaboration with Professor Ning Zhang (Ministry of Education talent program). As a joint Ph.D. student at the University of Washington, he was advised by Professor Daniel Kirschen (IEEE Fellow, Donald W. and Ruth Mary Close Professor).
His research focuses on AI and decision-making/optimization, large models, the planning, operation, and security of modern power and energy systems with high renewable penetration, and optimization decision-making methods for complex engineering systems.
