BIO
As an Associate Professor and Director of Industry Analytics and Visualisation, and the creator of at Faculty of Engineering & IT's DataLounge initiative, I am constantly navigating between the demands of developing world-renowned machine learning research and finding practical applications in real industry scenarios.
This sees me managing a team of 25 academics, Postdoc, PhD students and engineers; applying their minds and talents to an array of industry projects for government and businesses.
Aside from my duties as Industry director, I also publish a series of Statistics, Probability and Machine Learning (including Deep Learning) courses for PhD students and ML practitioners around the world.
I recorded the world's most popular Mandarin-speaking machine learning research MOOCS in Youku and Youtube.
I published many scholarly papers, some of which were co-authored with world's top ten most influential machine learning researchers.
