- Profile
-
Professor Lu joined the University of Sheffield as a Lecturer in November 2016. He is the Turing Network Development Award Lead and Insigneo Research Director for Healthcare Data / AI at the University of Sheffield. He is also the lead organiser of the Alan Turing Institute’s interest group on meta-learning for multimodal data and the Machine Learning Theme Lead for Sheffield in the N8 Centre of Excellence in Computationally Intensive Research. He received his BEng and MEng from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, in 2001 and 2004, and his PhD degree in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Toronto in 2008.
He was a recipient of a Turing Network Development Award, an Amazon Research Award, an AAAI Outstanding PC Member Award, a Hong Kong Research Grants Council Early Career Award, and an IEEE CIS Outstanding PhD Dissertation Award. He was also a joint-recipient of a Wellcome Trust Innovator Award and an NIHR AI in Health and Care Award.
- Research interests
-
His research focuses on developing translational AI technologies for better analysing multimodal data in healthcare and beyond, particularly multidimensional data and heterogeneous graphs in bioinformatics and medical imaging. He leads the development of the PyKale library to provide more accessible machine learning from multiple sources for interdisciplinary research, officially part of the PyTorch ecosystem.
