Profile
Hello! I am Qixing Liang, a Mathematics undergraduate at Birmingham on a 2+2 joint dual-degree programme with Minzu University of China. My interests span operations research, numerical computing and statistics. I enjoy understanding problems through mathematics, validating ideas through code and making abstract concepts accessible.

Projects & research
Mathematics in Industry · Pension Cash-flow & Risk Modelling
Course projectIntegrated mortality, monthly pensions, expenses and discount factors using Python, NumPy and Pandas into a 50-year (600-month) cash-flow model. Generated survival paths with 1,000 Monte Carlo simulations, modelled member, spouse and dependant payment rules, and summarised pension and expense present values using means, standard deviations and quantiles, with Excel exports for validation and analysis.
ROADEF 2026 · Adaptive Segment Routing study
2026Independent, AI-assisted modelling research into Orange’s routing challenge, exploring time-varying demand, link maintenance, ECMP flow splitting and reconfiguration budgets.
Mathematics in Industry · Mathematical visualisation
2025.11Created Python and Manim animations and educational video scripts explaining modular arithmetic and cryptographic concepts.
National Undergraduate Mathematical Modeling Competition · Beijing Second Prize
2025.09Modelled dynamic visibility for a missile–UAV smoke-screen problem using Python, differential evolution, grid search and time-series discretisation.
Zhengda Cup Market Research Competition · Beijing Second Prize
2025.04Led the team, designed questionnaires and expert interviews, built statistical models and wrote analytical sections using SOR–SEM, clustering and logistic regression.
Shared-bike Dispatch Optimisation · Challenger Cup project
2025.05Clustered pick-up and drop-off locations in Python, developed a genetic-algorithm dispatch-routing model and co-authored the technical paper.
