Background

Dr Moni holds a PhD in Artificial Intelligence & Data Science in 2014 from the University of Cambridge, UK followed by postdoctoral training at the University of New South Wales, University of Sydney Vice-chancellor fellowship, and Senior Data Scientist at the University of Oxford. Dr Moni then joined UQ in 2021. He also worked as an assistant professor and lecturer in two universities (PUST and JKKNIU) from 2007 to 2011. He is an Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision & Machine learning, Digital Health Data Science, Health Informatics and Bioinformatics researcher developing interpretable and clinical applicable machine learning and deep learning models to increase the performance and transparency of AI-based automated decision-making systems.

His research interests include quantifying and extracting actionable knowledge from data to solve real-world problems and giving humans explainable AI models through feature visualisation and attribution methods. He has applied these techniques to various multi-disciplinary applications such as medical imaging including stroke MRI/fMRI imaging, real-time cancer imaging. He led and managed significant research programs in developing machine-learning, deep-learning and translational data science models, and software tools to aid the diagnosis and prediction of disease outcomes, particularly for hard-to-manage complex and chronic diseases. His research interest also includes developing Data Science, machine learning and deep learning algorithms, models and software tools utilising different types of data, especially medical images, neuroimaging (MRI, fMRI, Ultrasound, X-Ray), EEG, ECG, Bioinformatics, and secondary usage of routinely collected data.

Available projects

  • Deep learning models development and application to the Neuro Imaging (MRI and fMRI)

    Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has become an important non-invasive radiological modality for various clinical applications, such as stoke and cancer. Extracting meaningful clinical information without human interaction is a challenging task. Developing such automatic methods are important in order to reduce human errors and the time taken by clinicians.

    In this project, the student will develop novel deep learning algorithms to solve segmentation and detection problems from imaging that could possibly be deployed to MRI & fMRI scanners and may eventually used for diagnostic purposes. The project will involve applying computer vision and deep learning techniques to MR image processing and analysis.
