My research interests mainly focus on computer vision, medical image analysis and medical imaging. Current research projects are:
Cardiac MR image analysis: motion estimation, image segmentation and strain analysis on cardiac cine MRI and myocardial tagging MRI .
MRI pulse sequences and image reconstruction
3D shape modeling and dynamic analysis
[2025/3/26] I will be an Assistant Professor at the Computer Science Engineering Department of The University of Texas at Arlington (UTA), starting from September 2025.
I am looking for multiple self-motivated PhD students to work on machine learning, computer vision and AI for healthcare applications. Students with a background in Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering (especially for MRI), Electrical Engineering, Automation and Mechanical Engineering, or related fields are welcome to drop me an email (meng.ye@rutgers.edu) with your CV and publications (if any). Please note I may not be able to respond to every message due to limited time.
