Research Team
Welcome to our research and team page. I am or have been PI on £4.6m of funding from EPSRC, H2020, InnovateUK, Royal Society, DSTL, USAF, MOD, and Lloyd's Register Foundation. I have 30+ PDRA years of primary supervision and 10 PhD students supervision experience. Our team has won / shortlisted for 6 prestigious awards from IEEE, IET, and Bell Labs.
The team is diverse and consists of 20 members from 8+ countries:
-
Lecturer (1 Dedicated): incoming - AI in autonomous systems
-
Research Fellows (6 Dedicated):
Adolfo Perrusquia (university) - reinforcement learning
Zhuangkun Wei (EPSRC UKRI TAS-S: RS2C) - secure communications in autonomy
Yan Zong (InnovateUK Future Flight: Fly2Plan) - secure AI in aerospace
*recruiting summer 2021* (EPSRC) - IoT security
*recruiting fall 2021* (EPSRC MACRO) - adversarial AI
Z. Du *awaiting visa* (H2020 IF) - green machine learning
-
Research Fellows (3 Shared in Projects)
-
Ph.D. Students (5 Dedicated):
Chen Li (2019-22) - green and trustworthy AI
Schyler Sun (2019-22) - explainable and causal AI
M. Zou (2020-23) - dynamic network resilience
J. Bai (2020-23, US AFOSR) - social network influence analysis
*recruiting fall 2021* (EPSRC TAS-S: RS2/3) - human adaptation informed secure network design
-
Ph.D. Students (7 Co-/External-Supervisor):

Research Directions
My directions consist of 3 main areas covering Human Machine Intelligence:
-
Cyberphysical Infrastructure Nexus (EPSRC, Turing-LRF, H2020, InnovateUK)
-
Socio-Physics for Urban and Conflict Science (EPSRC, Turing-D&S, DSTL, British Council, Royal Society)
-
Extreme Wireless & Molecular Communication (H2020, Royal Society, DSTL, USAF, LRF)
Details of these areas and their researchers are given below.
