I am a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Biostatistics and Medical Informatics and affiliate faculty in the Department of Computer Sciences and the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My primary research focus is computer vision. I am also interested in the applications of computer vision and machine learning in digital health.
I am currently a member of the NSF Center CHORUS for resilient cyber-physical systems and the U.S. Army AI Innovations Institute. I am honored to have received the NSF CAREER Award and Google Research Scholar Award. I have served as area chairs for vision and learning conferences (e.g., CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, NeurIPS, ICLR, and IJCAI). Our papers are recognized with best student paper awards at MobiHealth 2014 and IEEE Face and Gesture 2015, and a best demo nominee at ECCV 2020. Some of our work has been featured in MIT Tech Review, WIRED UK, New Scientist, BBC, and Forbes.
