Welcome to Ziyuan (Jacob) ZHAO’s homepage (赵子源)

I am currently a senior research engineer at Institute for Infocomm Research (I2R), Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore 🇸🇬. I am also a 2nd year Ph.D. student at the School of Computer Science and Engineering (SCSE), Nanyang Technological Unversity (NTU), supervised by Prof. Cuntai Guan. Previously, I received the M.Tech degree, National University of Singapore in 2019 and the B.Eng degree, Yunnan University in 2017.

My research interest lies in the interdisciplinary field of biomedical image analysis, artificial intelligence and healthcare. I am dedicated to designing machine learning algorithms for biomedical image analysis and automatic medical diagnosis, promoting wider AI-powered healthcare in the real world. Specifically, I focus on (1) developing annotation-efficient learning algorithms to minimize the annotation cost; (2) developing cross-domain learning algorithms to integrate different biomedical data; and (3) building reliable, generalizable, and practical AI healthcare systems from imperfect biomedical data. I have published more than 30 papers at the top international AI conferences and journals.

Openings: We have multiple openings for Interns/Visiting Ph.D. sudents (all-year-round) to work on research projects related to medical image analysis and 3D vision. Students with strong self-motivation and publication record are preferred. Welcome to drop me an email with your CV. Remote collaboration is also welcome!
