RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

Short Video wastage. (2022)

The project aims to understand the causes of short video data wastage in terms of viewing time and buffering. Analyzed the reasons for the waste of different short video servers at the pre-load level. Designed an algorithm to reduce the short video wastage from pre-loading and buffer level.


Measurement Study across Short Video Services. (2021)

This work provided a comprehensive comparison of four popular short video services. In particular, the work focus on exploring content characteristics and evaluating the video quality across resolutions for each service.


Congestion Prediction in WiFi Video Streaming. (2020)

This research aims to detect the network changes to deliver a better rate adaptation mechanism for adaptive video streaming. This research proposes an algorithm, Congestion Prediction-DASH (CP- DASH), which is designed to prevent stalling and maximize video quality.


Jump Activities Recognition. (2018)

The purpose of this research is to extract the motion information when jumping, such as jumping up and down. Through Recurrent Neural Network modeling (RNN), the movement characteristics of the jump are separated, and extracted the jump information to recognize the specific activities.


Activity Recognition based on radar (Walabot) sensor. (2017)

The research proposes an ambient radar sensor-based solution to recognize the activities that humans normally perform in indoor environments. The radar sensors detect abnormal and instantaneous motion situations by high-frequency radio signal.


Tracing location based on Ultrasonic sensor. (2016)

This research work designs and develops a noninvasive distance-based user localization and tracking solution, DiLT, for smart systems. DiLT consists of mechanical ultrasonic beam-forming designs to track the motion of the user.
