A holistic human activity recognition optimisation using AI techniques (2023)
Journal Article
Li, Z., Liu, Y., Liu, B., Le Kernec, J., & Yang, S. (2024). A holistic human activity recognition optimisation using AI techniques. IET Radar, Sonar & Navigation, 18(2), 256-265. https://doi.org/10.1049/rsn2.12474

Building on previous radar-based human activity recognition (HAR), we expand the micro-Doppler signature to 6 domains and exploit each domain with a set of handcrafted features derived from the literature and our patents. An adaptive thresholding met... Read More about A holistic human activity recognition optimisation using AI techniques.

A Fast Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Image Acquisition and Reconstruction Pipeline for Skin Application (2023)
Journal Article
Liao, J., Yang, S., Zhang, T., Li, C., & Huang, Z. (2023). A Fast Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Image Acquisition and Reconstruction Pipeline for Skin Application. Biomedical Optics Express, 14(8), 3899-3913. https://doi.org/10.1364/BOE.486933

Traditional high-quality OCTA images require multi-repeated scans (e.g., 4-8 repeats) in the same position, which may cause the patient to be uncomfortable. We propose a deep-learning-based pipeline that can extract high-quality OCTA images from only...
