feel free to drop me an email or walk in my office!
Postdoc/RA positions (open all-year-round): Reinforcement learning and imitation learning, robot perception and motion planning, synergistic AI/XR for medical education, surgical simulation, deep model adaptation/generalization, non-iid federated learning.
PhD/Mphil topics: medical image analysis (generalizability, federated learning, causality), robotic surgery (surgical video interpretation, 3D reconstruction, reinforcement learning for robotic task automation), multi-sensory robotic perception (in various scenarios).
I start to look for 2023Summer intern and 2024Fall PhD and Mphil, email me directly with your CV if interested.
Research Interest
- My research is at the interdisciplinary field of medical image analysis, machine learning and robotic surgery intelligence, aiming to create synergistic advancements for innovative intelligent systems that achieve an impact to support delivery of higher-quality medical diagnosis, intervention and education via next-generation healthcare technology. Previous representative works include 3D deep learning for high-dimensional image computing, domain adaptation and generalization on heterogeneous medical data, surgical video analysis with efficient spatial-temporal learning, and visual-kinematics surgical robotics perception and automation.
- Recent focus: 1) embodied intelligence in surgical robots, 2) smart mixed-reality for robotic surgical education, 3) multi-sensory perception in dynamic environment, 4) model generalization on non-iid medical images at FL/multi-center learning in real-world.
