Dr. Pengfei Gu
Bio
I am currently an Assistant Professor at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley in the Computer Science department. I obtained my Ph.D. from the University of Notre Dame, under the supervision of Dr. Danny Z. Chen and Dr. Chaoli Wang. Previously, I received an M.S. in Computer Science and an M.S. in Mathematics from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, and a bachelor's degree in Mathematics from Tianjin University of Technology and Education.
My primary research lies in artificial intelligence for biomedical data analysis and scientific visualization. Specifically, my research focuses on:
- Deep Learning for Medical Image Analysis: This includes areas such as image segmentation, classification, and registration, with a particular emphasis on topological machine learning, topology-driven image analysis, efficient annotation, self-supervised learning, semi-supervised learning, transfer learning, large foundation models/large language models in medical imaging, and multi-modal data analysis.
- Deep Learning for Scientific Visualization: This includes research on scientific data generation and scientific data compression.
