My research focuses on multimodal AI systems for emergency medicine,
spanning clinical biosignal processing, speech and language understanding,
and quantum machine learning.
Previously, I was an AI Trainer at OpenAI, CTO of Neuro Industry, Inc. and a Digital IC Design Engineer at
MediaTek.
I aim to build clinically deployable AI systems that bridge quantum computing, multimodal learning, and emergency medicine.
Modern clinical environments generate rich, heterogeneous signals β EEG, audio, imaging, text β yet real-time decision support
remains fragmented. My work addresses this gap through two complementary directions:
(1) designing hybrid quantum-classical architectures that capture complex temporal dependencies in biosignals,
and (2) engineering end-to-end multimodal pipelines that integrate speech, language, and physiological data for trauma triage and psychiatric treatment prediction.
A core principle of my research is clinical translation: my EEG-based models are already serving real patients at the
Precision Depression Intervention Center in Taipei.
