My Research Activities
I have contributed to the overall research performance within the signal processing group in the EET School. Significantly based on my unique research built from my PhD, I successfully completed the projects of Automatic Task Analysis for Wearable Computing, and Human Behaviour Modelling and Analysis based on Processing of Wearable Sensor Signals with my colleagues. These research projects are conducted using a wearable, non-invasive approach with strengths in signal processing and machine learning. Significant outcomes have been produced, demonstrated by publishing high-impact journal papers, and attracting repeated funding.
