Research Interests
I have a strong interest in data-driven healthcare research integrating signal processing and
machine learning,
with a focus on developing efficient AI for biomedical applications.
Current Research Focus: Digital phenotyping, AI for mental health, multimodal biosignal analysis,
biomedical signal processing, and development of Software as a Medical Device (SaMD).
