Yang Weiyi, Ph.D., is currently a lecturer at the School of Artificial Intelligence of Nanjing University of Information Science & Technology, a core member of the Jiangsu University Key Laboratory of Intelligent Medical Image Computing and the Smart Medical Research Institute, and a youth committee member of the Chinese Research Hospital Association. He graduated from the School of Communication Engineering of Jilin University with a bachelor’s degree and a doctoral degree, and received his doctorate in October 2022. He went to the Department of Biomedical Engineering at McGill University for joint training and studied under Robert E Kearney, an academician of the Canadian Academy of Engineering and an academician of the American Academy of Biomedical Sciences. Now he is mainly engaged in research in the fields of biomedical signal processing and the development of intelligent diagnostic systems. Currently, he is presiding over the Jiangsu Provincial Basic Research Program Natural Science Foundation (2024.09-2027.08). He has published more than 20 SCI academic papers in high-level international journals such as “Information Sciences”, “Knowledge-based systems”, and “Artificial intelligence in medicine”. Google Scholar shows that the paper has been cited more than 500 times, with the highest number of citations for a single article being 152 times. He has served as a reviewer for high-level SCI journals such as Information Fusion and Information Sciences. Has applied for multiple invention patents, 4 of which have been authorized.
