Songyan Hou

Hi, I am Songyan Hou, a PhD student of Beatrice Acciaio and Patrick Cheridito at ETH since September 2021. Before, I completed my master thesis at ETH focusing on machine learning and mathematical finance supervised by Josef Teichmann. I received my bachelorâs degree in Mathematics at Nanjing University.
My current research interests are mainly on Mathematical Finance and Machine Learning. I am interested in exploring models describing the financial world and analyzing these stochastic models. Recently, I am working on applications of optimal transport in mathematical finance and machine learning.

May 14, 2025 | đ Excited to share our latest work: PNOT: Python Nested Optimal Transport â developed together with Ruben Bontorno! PNOT offers ultra-fast C++ solvers with a Python interface for solving nested (adapted) optimal transport problems. In particular, it efficiently computes the adapted Wasserstein distance, combining speed and precision like never before. Check it out and feel free to contribute or give feedback! |
