Experience

  1. Research Assistant

    Johns Hopkins University, Malone Center for Engineering in Healthcare

    Responsibilities include:

    • Established the state-of-the-art performance of semi-supervised domain adaptation (SSDA) and unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) methods for generalizability of algorithms for video-based assessment (VBA) of intraoperative skill in a critical step in cataract surgery.
    • Evaluated the utility of UDA with maximum mean discrepancy (MMD) for prediction tasks that use temporal models.
  2. Graduate Research Assistant

    Johns Hopkins University, Laboratory for Computational Sensing + Robotics (LCSR)

    Responsibilities include:

    • Applied Semi-Supervised VoxelMorph framework on the CT scans of ET to do automated registration and segmentation.
    • Build a completed pipeline to evaluate the performance of deep learning models from the clinical views.
    • Developed an automated pipeline to build Statistical Shape Models (SSMs) from a pool of CT scans of patients to facilitate quantitative analysis and visual exploration of anatomical variations of eustachian tube (ET).
    • Constructed anatomical ET shapes using Point Distribution Model, and captured principal modes of shape variability by Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
  3. Graduate Research Assistant

    Johns Hopkins Medicine, Wilmer Eye Institute

    Responsibilities include:

    • Developed algorithms for generalizability of skill assessment algorithms on cataract surgery study.
    • De-identified and processed cataract surgical videos.
