He has recognized as the most cited Chinese Researcher respectively in 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 by Scopus/Elsevier. He is the Fellow of IET (FIET), ACM Distinguished Member (Scientist), and IEEE Senior Member.
Abstract:
As a large amount of data is collected daily from individuals, businesses, and other organizations or applications, various algorithms have been developed to identify interesting and useful patterns in the data that meet a set of requirements specified by a user. The main purpose of data analysis and data mining is to find new, potentially useful patterns that can be used in real-world applications. For example, analyzing customer transactions in a retail store can reveal interesting patterns in customer buying behavior that can then be used for decision making. Several pattern mining approaches have then been extensively developed and used in various domains and applications, such as cross-marketing, e-commerce, finance, education, medical and biomedical applications. In this talk, I will first highlight the advantages of using pattern mining models for knowledge discovery and pattern analysis. Then, I will explain how pattern mining helps to improve the effectiveness of studying/learning in an education scheme.

Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) prolifically reciprocates impact on its boundaries with diagnostic medical
imaging systems. The complex and diverse nature of medical imaging data confers an intricate
application domain to explore the associated pitfalls algorithms, hence validate the machine learning
based visual analytics techniques. In this talk, an earnest attempt will be made to reflect on recent
visual computing approaches for machine learning driven automatic analysis of small bowel capsule
endoscopy videos (VCE). Majority of frameworks developed for general medical imaging analysis
and capsule endoscopy in particular tend to be polarized either towards computational or clinical
domain overlooking the essential gaps required to fill for a prospective clinical solution. In this talk, a
detailed comparative and critical analysis of existing research methodologies for small bowel capsule
endoscopic video will be presented and these methods are also evaluated from the aspects considered
significant by clinical experts such as population study, biasness, data split type, validation method
and prospective nature of experiments. The gaps between AI driven computational methodologies
presented by AI experts and clinical knowledge basis established by expert gastroenterologists arecritically highlighted to be addressed in future.
