Research

Professor Moseley’s research spans operations research, theoretical computer science, and machine learning.

He designs and analyzes algorithms for optimization, with interests in online and stochastic decision-making, scheduling, clustering, and large-scale computation.

A central focus of his recent work is learning-augmented algorithms, which use data-driven predictions to improve performance while retaining provable guarantees when predictions are inaccurate.
