Notes
  • Represented Indonesia at IOI 1998 (Setubal, Portugal) while a student at SMA Pelita Harapan Tangerang, winning Silver with 540/700 points (absolute rank 41 of 241, relative rank 83.4%) - part of a four-person Indonesian delegation that took two silvers and a bronze.Sep 12, 1998
  • Earned an M.Eng. from MIT's EECS department in 2013, shifting from competitive programming to applied machine learning; his thesis used Latent Dirichlet Allocation plus pointwise mutual information to infer MIT faculty research interests - an early instance of embedding/topic-based profiling.Jun 1, 2013
  • The IOI->MIT EECS trajectory places him in the small cohort of Indonesian IOI medalists who continued into graduate CS research abroad, rather than industry software engineering.Jun 1, 2013
