Biography


My research focus on the intersaction of electronic engineering, computer science and computational clinical research, with special interests in transfer learning, deep learning, human sensing using multi-modal sensors and machine learning framework, medical image analysis and cross-modal knowledge discovery. My research objective is to investigate how to integrate multi-modal sensor design and machine learning framework to assist, understand and intervene clinical practice. I am also interested in understanding the cognitive process of clinical diagnosis based on observational data

I am leading the SPI Group.
