Bio
I had spent many years of teaching and researching at Courant Institute, New
York University. At Courant, I had done research in the areas of Network
Optimizations, Video Communications, Quantum Computing and Stochastic Risk
Analysis. I also worked in Software Industries for eight years as a Software
Research Analyst/Architect. The companies that I worked with are Micromuse
Inc., Opus360 Inc, Real Media Inc. and Health Insurance Plan of Greater New
York. At Micromuse, I worked on the research project of Traffic Analysis and
Control, Caching Architecture and Engine. At Opus360, I devoted my time on the
Visualization Research and the Flow Control Architecture.
I earned my Bachelor's degrees in Computer Engineering, Physics, Mathematics
from State University of New York at Stony Brook, a Master's degree in
Computer Engineering from Boston University and a PhD from New York
University. Research
My current active research areas are in Stochastic Risk Computing, Wireless
Communications, Quantum Computing and Image Processing.
-
Stochastic Risk Computing: probability of ruin is to model to observe
and predict the chance of bankruptcy for companies, given the initial value
and interest rate. Brownian motions and connections to other models in Risk
Management are under investigations.
-
Wireless Communications: Multiuser access and interference are main
problems needing to improve. Techniques in Multiuser Detection, Channel
Feedback Decision, Optimum Receivers, together with Collision Resolution are
in examination.
-
Quantum Computing: the future of computing will be involved with high
speed computation and the associations of Qubit play crucial roles. Several
projects that I have approached are Quantum Search Algorithm, Quantum Key
Distribution & Cryptography. Quantum Cohomology and String theory are also in
progress projects.
-
Image Processing: projects are progressed in Multidimensional Signal
Processing, Stability of Multidimensional Signals, Stochastic Models for Noise
and Representations, 3D Game Architectures.
