I am a senior research fellow at the School of Computing, National University of Singapore, and the Assistant Director (Operation) of the NUS Artifitial Intelligence Institute (NAII) . I am also a member of the IEEE and ACM.
In 2006, I obtained his BEng from The University of Adelaide. After a brief spell in Clipsal Integrated Systems and Codan Limited, I pursuit PhD in Computer Science from The University of Queensland under the supervision of Prof. Brian C. Lovell and Dr. Conrad Sanderson. I has worked as a graduate researcher at NICTA's Queensland laboratory from 2008 to 2012. I joint NUS at 2012, where I have been working with exciting researchers on Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Social Scene Understanding, Privacy Preserving Technologies, Fairness, Trustworthy AI, Knowledge-driven model and many other topics. I also served as the Assistant Director for Sensor-enhanced Social Media Centre (SeSaMe Centre) and subsequently for NUS Centre for Research in Privacy Technologies (N-CRiPT).
My research is in the area of computer vision, machine learning and multimedia application, in particular on social scene analysis and trusted multimodal AI.
