We’d like to welcome Zixin Wang to CIRES! Zixin joined the Centre as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in July 2024 and is based at The University of Queensland. Her research focuses on domain adaptation and test-time adaptation in computer vision. Her work involves utilizing AI models for data-centric learning across various vision-based contexts, including image classification, segmentation, and 3D detection. She has developed models that contribute to the literature in the multimedia and computer vision field, including the Best Student Paper award at ACM Multimedia 2023.
She is enthusiastic about collaborating with a diverse range of stakeholders, from multidisciplinary researchers to industry and government partners, to advance research on applying AI models in real-world applications.
She will be working closely with Centre Director Professor Shazia Sadiq and looks forward to building successful collaborative relationships across the Centre and making significant contributions to CIRES.
Professor Susan Williams from the Universität Koblenz Germany, is visiting our Swinburne University of Technology node from the 4th to 9th February 2024. Sue is a Professor of Enterprise Information Management and will be collaborating and working with CIRES Chief Investigator Dr Paul Scifleet, and CIRES PhD Researchers Lufan Zhang and Pa Pa Khin.
As an interdisciplinary researcher with expertise in the areas of social and organisational informatics, Sue’s work focuses on information ecologies and the design of the digital workplace. With an academic background in computer and information science, her research examines complex socio-technical change (STC) and human-centred technology design. Her long-term research programme investigates the challenges associated with understanding how new information infrastructures are shaping work and work practices, and the design of digital workspaces and workplaces to support distributed collaborative work.
CIRES Chief Investigator Dr Paul Scifleet is looking forward to the collaboration. “Professor William’s is one of the world’s leading researchers in Enterprise Information Management and the challenges businesses face today in managing the ever-increasing amount of vital information shared in workplace collaboration technologies. We are excited to be working with Professor Williams to improve the information resilience of Australian businesses facing the same concerns.”
