Working on

What I'm working on

This page is my (not always current) attempt to keep track of all the things I'm working on...

Energy systems

  • Joint optimal placement, sizing, and operation of PV, storage, and bi-directional EVs (with Anais Berkes)
  • Policy recommendations to exploit the synergy of residential PV, bi-directional TVs, and working from home (with Anais Berkes and David Reiner)
  • Studying the impact of system configuration on the energy usage of LLMs (with Grant Wilkins and Richard Mortier)

Extreme weather impact and mitigation

  • Studying how urban buildings can cope with extreme weather events (with Livia Capol, ETH and Zoltan Nagy, UT Austin)
  • Studying the impact of extreme weather on the transmission grid (with Enming Liang and Minghua Chen (both CityU HK))

Environment and conservation

Carbon estimation and credits

  • Cambridge Centre for Carbon Credits
  • Studying the impact of forest degradation on pan-tropical carbon stock and structure (with Amelia Holcombe and David Coomes)
  • 3D forest structure reconstruction using monocular vision and DNNs (with Yihang She, David Coomes, and Andrew Blake)
  • Studying the impact of wildfires on forest carbon stock (with Jovana Knezevic, David Coomes, and Andrew Pellegrini)
  • Quantifying carbon sequestration in regrowing forests in the Brazilian Atlantic (with Felipe Begliomini and David Coomes)

Monitoring and remote sensing

  • Identifying land use from spatial-spectral-temporal remote sensing using self-supervised learning (with Madeline Lisaius, Clement Atzberger, and Andrew Blake)
  • Using CNNs and computer vision for low-cost and realtime insect biodiversity measurement (with Sachin Matthew, Matteo Redana, and Lynn Dicks)
  • Low-cost sensing of soil moisture (with Ju Wang (Northwest U., China, and Omid Abari, UCLA)
  • Developing algorithms for trunk diameter estimation in complex environments using game engine-based training (with Frank Feng and Yihang She)
  • Monitoring wild boar and lynx population in the Carpathians (with Tom Ratsakatika and Ruben Iosif (carpathian.org))

Misc.

  • Designing an index to measure researcher influence and also identify potential research fraud (with Ankai Jie)
