Intelligent Transportation System ( ITS ) aims to provide innovative transportation and traffic management , enabling users to coordinate the use of transportation networks in making transportation safer and efficient . Our research focuses on enabling artificial intelligence , AI to improve data analytics with the use of communication to provide sustainable transportation applications . Unmanned aerial vehicles ( UAVs ), better known as drones are the next intelligent transportation system advancement which is one of the major technological developments of today .
Our research focuses on developing UAV communications systems to help drones and their operators achieve promising results in applications . By designing efficient Internet of Things ( IoT ) technologies , different objects which are embedded with sensors can be used to connect and exchange data for system analytics . Currently we are working with transportation and IoT industries to create future technologies for the Intelligent Transportation System ( ITS ).

Quantitative image analysis and Computer-Aided Diagnosis ( CAD ) are broad concepts that integrate image processing , computer vision and artificial intelligence ( AI ) -based methods into computerized techniques that assist radiologists in their medical decision-making processes . These techniques include the detection of disease and anatomic structures of interest , classification of lesions , and risk assessment . We , along with colleagues and collaborators in other institutions , are conceptualising and developing novel deep learning , CAD , radiomics and quantitative image analysis-based methodologies . Active research projects span different imaging modalities
( including mammography , computed tomography , and digital breast tomosynthesis ) across a range of anatomic systems ( including lungs , breast , and brain ). The techniques we develop produce objective , quantitative computations of the numeric imaging data . These objective computations serve to augment the radiologists ’ subjective , qualitative interpretation of the displayed images . Unlike the radiologists ’ interpretation that may be prone to human error and fatigue as well as to inter-or intraobserver variabilities , deep learning and CAD schemes produce an objective and consistent reading / result to complement the radiologists ’ readings .
