Current Projects

Robot nurse helper

This is a project to develop an interactive robot desktop multimedia system to deliver health education in hospitals to alleviate the shortage of nurse educator in Taiwan. We collaborate with an ophthalmologist at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital to develop the content and control flow for cataract patients for their pre- and post-surgical health education. Code is available on my GitHub webpage (Link).

Depth estimation in an eye ball

For intraocular microsurgery, robotic assistance is a cutting-edge research field because it is promising for expanding human capabilities and improving the safety and efficiency of the intricate surgery process. Because depth is critical for intraocular microsurgery, in this project we want to estimate the depth of the medical devices in an eye ball. We want to develop a method which can warm the operator if the device is too close to the retina.

Zero-shot skeleton-based action recognition

Current research results have been published in ECCV’24 and the paper is available in my publication webpage (Link). However, there are some puzzles unsolved yet. For example, why does this method work poorly on some action datasets? How will the quality of text affect the method’s performance? If we refine the text description of the NTU RGB+D dataset, what will happen? Is the skeleton data of the NTU RGB+D dataset so noisy that the proposed method works? Given a high-quality skeleton action dataset, will the proposed method still work? To answer those questions, further research is required to be carried out.
