Projects

  • Aug 2023 - Present
    Risk-Aware Resource Allocation for Robust Wireless Autonomy
    Distributionally robust optimization for resource allocation in wireless autonomy. The duality with coherent risk measures emphasizes risk-averse stochastic programming, yielding ultra-reliable and efficient policies. A unified theory of distributionally robust optimization framework is developed, including comprehensive analysis.
    • Distributionally Robust Optimization
    • Risk-Averse Decision-Making
  • Jan 2020 - Jun 2022
    Design of Index Modulation-Based Molecular Communication Systems
    Comprehensive analysis on molecular multiple-receiver systems, in terms of communication performance and channel characteristics. Additionally, an elaborate channel modeling is developed for molecular multiple-receiver systems with fully-absorbing spherical receivers.
    • Molecular Communication
    • Index Modulation
  • Apr 2018 - Jun 2018
    Hand Gesture Recognition via AI
    Hand gesture recognition from live camera stream, via several machine learning methods such as logistic regression, neural nets, decision tree and random forest. Recognised hand gestures are fed into unsupervised rock, paper, scissors game.
    • Machine Learning
    • Artificial Intelligence
