Education

-UNISTRA - KU Leuven 2020-2023 (Dual joint PhD program) – Project: “Automatic endoscope repositioning with respect to the surgical task”
Equipe Automatique Vision et Robotique (AVR) - ICube at UNISTRA as the hosting institution; under the supervision of Prof. Michel de Mathelin (Benoit Rosa & Florent Nageotte)
Robot - Assisted Surgery Group, KU Leuven as the secondary host; under the supervision of Prof. Joris De Schutter (Emmanuel Vander Poorten & Gianni Borghesan)

-University of Glasgow April-August 2019 (Multimodal Interaction Group) – Algorithm design and development
Project: “Data analysis of sensor (accelerometer, giroscope and eye tracking) to measure cognitive load using robust metrics for different tasks” - Use of Python for development of a technique to processes raw sensor data and es-timate cognitive load using 4 metrics. Data cleaning, outlier detection and principal component analysis was applied.
Tutor: Stephen Brewster – stephen.brewster@glasgow.ac.uk
