Hi! I am Tianliang Yao, an undergraduate at the Department of Control Science and Engineering, College of Electronics and Information Engineering at Tongji University & Shanghai Research Institute for Intelligent Autonomous Systems (SRIAS), guided by Prof. Peng Qi.
I am a student member of the IEEE, IEEE Robotics and Automation Society, CAA, and CCF.
My research aims to discover how Artificial Intelligence (AI) aids the field of healthcare. Currently, I mainly focus on three major applications: intelligent medical robotics, medical image analysis, and bioinformatic analysis. I seek to streamline and improve clinical workflows through technology and work towards image-based automation in robotic surgery. I aspire to explore all of these areas through research in the years ahead, gaining exciting and valuable insights and making meaningful contributions.
