Supervisors in Information Technology, Monash University

My research interests include mobile and ubiquitous applications, mobile decision support systems, context-aware computing and situation reasoning, mobile health monitoring and chronic pain management, Internet of Things (IoT), and social media content analysis.

Alan Dorin is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Information Technology, Monash University. He researches the ways in which technology assists discovery in the ecological sciences and in human creativity. Through his work in Artificial Life, Alan explores the key attributes of organisms that enable them to live in complex environments. In particular, Alan's research addresses one of the most important current global problems - how insects, especially bees, contribute to human food production and natural ecosystem sustainability.

Dr Lan Du is a senior lecturer in Data Science and AI at Monash University, Australia. He is also the director of Postgraduate studies in the Faculty of Information Technology. His research interests are centred on the intersection of machine/deep learning and natural language processing, with a particular focus on areas such as active learning, uncertainty estimation, knowledge distillation, and topic modelling. He is also interested in exploring their applications in diverse domains, including public health and marketing.

My research concerns many different aspects of Information Visualisation and Visual Analytics. In other words, I am interested in visual interfaces for the exploration and communication of data. An area of key interest for me is network visualization, which I believe has a critical role to play in helping people to understand complex, interlinked data.
