Hi there!👋 <strong>I am a Doctoral Researcher</strong> at <a href="&quot;https://www.griffith.edu.au/griffith-sciences/school-information-communication-technology/institute-integrated-intelligent-systems/our-researchers">The School of Engineering and Built Environment, Griffith University</a>, Australia where I build human-understandable explanation frameworks for deep learning models. More specifically, I conduct research on 🔎<strong>Explainable AI</strong> for Visual Categorization tasks, 🔓<strong>Computer Vision</strong> and 📝<strong>Reliability Engineering</strong>. My work has been funded by the <a href="https://www.griffith.edu.au/griffith-sciences/farming-productivity">ARC Research Hub for Driving Farming Productivity and Disease Prevention</a> and the <a href="https://www.griffith.edu.au/griffith-sciences/school-information-communication-technology/institute-integrated-intelligent-systems">Institute for Integrated and Intelligent Systems (IIIS)</a>. I’ve made significant contributions to both fundamental theories and applied research that can solve important industrial problems, and published in prestigious journals and conferences, including:</p>
<ul>
  <li>IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence</li>
  <li>IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems</li>
  <li>IEEE Access</li>
  <li>Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology</li>
  <li>International Conference on Multimedia and Expo (ICME)</li>
  <li>Data for Policy, etc.</li>
