My research uses mathematical models and computer simulation to help identify improved infectious disease prevention and control strategies in both humans and animals. Our work has a significant impact on public health and veterinary health, by strengthening planning and disease control strategies to prevent infectious disease outbreaks.
My research interests include integrated management of insect pests in horticultural, fruit, field and greenhouse crops using environmentally compatible control methods, insecticide resistance management, and the impact of...
I examine professional interactions in the context of therapy. I use discourse and conversation analysis to study the micro-details of social interaction.
Dr. Gong’s research interests cover various topics in the broad area of visual computing (including computer graphics, computer vision, visualization, image processing, and pattern recognition).
I am engaged in questions of applied landscape ecology in rural and agricultural landscapes, including changes in landscape patterns and the consequences of those changes on biodiversity, water quality, and culture.
My research improves life by assessing workplace tasks and devices for end user injury potential. Once the risk is understood, new methods and devices are designed to minimize the potential of developing injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome.
I examine marine conservation policy and governance, from local to global scales. I explore how decisions are made, how science and other kinds of knowledge inform these decisions, how various actors influence decision-making processes, and who benefits (or loses) as a result.
Statistical natural language processing has been actively studied in the field of Artificial Intelligence. My research is mainly focused on applying machine learning methods in Information Retrieval, Text Categorization, Sentiment Analysis, Text Segmentation, Text Summarization, Privacy Policy Analysis, and Text Mining.
