Short Bio
Hui Liu is a post-doctoral researcher at the Cognitive Systems Lab (CSL), University of Bremen, focusing on biomedical engineering, biosignal processing, human activity recognition (HAR), rehabilitation assistance, machine learning (ML), robotics, virtual reality, and music information retrieval (MIR). Hui Liu developed the first mobile system that senses and recognizes its users' movements in real-time, utilizing proximity wearable sensors integrated into a knee bandage. He invented Motion Units, a human activity modeling method with interpretability, generalizability, and expandability, rationalizing knowledge from kinesiology and automatic speech recognition into HAR research (2021). In 2022, Hui Liu proposed novel variants of the pitch histogram, the merged pitch histogram and the pitch-duration histogram, and successfully applied them to ethnomusicology studies and singing aids. Currently, Hui Liu has two technology patents pending. ... More >>

Short Bio
Jun Xu is the Director of Jiangsu Provincial Key Laboratory of Intelligent Medical Image Computing (IMIC) and the Vice Dean of the School of Future Technology at Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology, China. He had been a postdoctoral scientist and visiting professor at the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Rutgers University and Case Western Reserve University in the United States, respectively. He and his IMIC research group are developing and applying novel quantitative image analysis, natural language processing, signal processing, and machine learning tools for disease prevention, di agnosis, and prognosis in the context of breast, liver, colorectal, prostate, brain disease, and ophthalmology. His group is also exploring the utility of these methods in studying correlations of disease markers across multiple scales and modalities-- from digital pathology to X-ray, CT, multi-parametric MR images, electronic health records, and biosignals. ...
