Graduate Research Assistant, Computer Science & Engineering,  University of Connecticut, USA

I am a Computer Science and Engineering Ph.D. student at the University of Connecticut. Since Fall 2020, I have been a member of Computer Networking Research Group, supervised by Dr. Bing Wang. My main research interests are ubiquitous computing, digital health, machine learning and deep learning. My research revolves around harnessing the potential of data-driven insights and investigating the use of machine learning algorithms to develop effective depression monitoring and assessment that can help clinicians better understand and treat mental health issues. My work contributes to advancing the field of smart and connected health, specifically, using sensory data collected from mobile devices (smartphones and wearables) to automatically monitor depression symptoms and predict the treatment outcome of depression.
