About me 🐝

Hi there, I'm Sihong Wu 👋

I am currently a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, working with Dr. Aimé Fournier and Dr. Laurent Demanet. My research focuses on uncertainty quantification in geophysical inverse problems, machine learning, and geo-electromagnetic methods.

I obtained my PhD in Geophysics in 2021 from Peking University (PKU), China, under the supervision of Prof. Qinghua Huang, and continued at PKU as a postdoctoral researcher , where I worked on deep learning-based processing, simulation, inversion and uncertainty quantification for geo-electromagnetic data.

From 2023 to 2024, I was a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Houston, where I collaborated with Dr. Jiajia Sun and Dr. Jiefu Chen and focused on uncertainty quantification in geophysical inversion, natural hydrogen exploration, and the study of oceanic plateaus using marine magnetic data.

I obtained my BS in Geophysics in 2016 from the Special Class for the Gifted Young at the University of Science and Technology in China (USTC), China.

My research interests include:

• Uncertainty quantification of geophysical inverse problems based on machine learning techniques
• Deep learning-based signal processing, modeling, imaging, uncertainty quantification of geo-electromagnetic data
• Near-surface hydrological investigation
• Geothermal exploration
