RESEARCH

My research interests lie primarily in the area of Artificial Intelligence in Surgery (specifically  Surgical Data Science), using computer vision, signal analysis and machine learning techniques. In the past I was affiliated with the following research centers: GSK R&D, Institute of Neurology, Medical Imaging Group – UCL, and Gray Cancer Institute.

Currently my research work focuses on:

  • Video processing of surgical procedures
  • Context aware assistance in surgical education and practice
  • Skills assessment in surgery
  • Virtual and augmented reality systems for surgical training

In my previous posts I was involved with (and I am still interested in):

  • Histopathological image analysis
  • Brain signal analysis
  • Spectral Imaging
  • PACS and telemedicine systems

See below for a list of my publications. Here are some demos and datasets from my research work.
