Sidong Guo

Ph.D. at Georgia Tech School of Electrical and Computer Engineering advised by Prof. Matthieu Bloch.

Currently a Research Fellow at Harvard John A. Paulson School Of Engineering And Applied Sciences, supervised by Prof. Flavio du Pin Calmon, where I work on steganographic agentic communication through an information-theoretic lens.

My research interests are broad, except 80% of them go nowhere. My current researches focus on Information theoretic analysis of communication, sensing and agentic systems.

Instead of providing provenance or performance guarantee of algorithms, our philosophy is to first take the problem to abstract level by constructing information-theoretic models. We then analyze and apply information-theoretic principles to these models, in communication, sensing and agentic systems, which then provides intuitions and guidelines for designing practical algorithms.

Previously, I received my BS in Electrical Engineering with highest honors in 2022, also at Tech. My BS/MS advisor is Prof. Xiaoli Ma, and my thesis titled “Performance Analysis and Algorithm Design for Chirp-based Multicarrier Systems,” which involves the use of non-linear transform basis in multicarrier systems and its related algorithms and performance characterizations.
